Formula E's chief executive, Jeff Dodds, revealed intentions to include female drivers at championship level within the next two to three years, speaking to media on Friday.
Acknowledging the 50-year gap since a woman last raced in Formula One, Dodds promised a significant expansion of the women's program, stating the belief that men and women can equally compete when given equal conditions in motorsport.
With the introduction of a quicker and lighter Gen 4 car marking a new era, Formula E views this as an opportunity for growth and inclusivity. Teams are already poised to take the next step in supporting female drivers, aligning with the series' ambitions for gender equality.
