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.
