Fiona Leggate

I respect Fiona Leggate before I even reach the details. A British racing driver born in 1980 in Lincolnshire, she stepped into a sport that stayed stubbornly male-dominated for decades, and simply gripping the wheel there demands a particular kind of nerve. The record on her is thin, but behind that sparseness sits years of pushing the throttle while fighting expectations no male rival ever faced. Speed, after all, has no gender, and drivers like her proved it on track rather than in arguments. Picturing a girl from the Lincolnshire flatlands going wheel to wheel with the men genuinely stirs me. I am drawn to anyone who carves a road where none existed.
