Damn, I mistook the title for racequeen and left disappointed.

Good, someone to watch for, the Japanese drivers aren't up there.
Wishing you well for the coming season Miki Koyama.

If she can't make it to F1 pretty sure she could still become one of those hot grid girls. #justsayin

Sorry, not impressed. There's always, somewhere, a girl/woman who thinks she can handles an F1 car and beat the big boys. It;s this Feminism rubbish which helps females to believe that anything a man can do, a woman can. If this girl really tries to beat all the guys she will either be humiliated or will kill herself. I know this comment is not "politically correct". Neither am I. I am a realist., not a puppet.

As a high-school-aged minor, she has a long way to go to join the F-1 club. I hope she gets there in one piece.

His nick-name was "Crash Kobayashi".

Japan has produced average F1 drivers at best, most have had the seats bought for them instead of actual raw talent. I doubt this girl will make it to that level. you need huge skill, I dont give a F attitude and get a car that is actually competitive. so unless Honda can make it back to the top of F1 again I dont see that happening.

bluenote1: There is no "Women's F1 racing" or "Men's F1 Racing". Therefore, everyone should at least be given a chance to race among professionals. As a "realist" wouldn't you agree that equality of the sexes doesn't mean you give a free handout to any one regardless of sex, but that you give everyone the opportunity to prove themselves regardless of sex?

Women can tolerate higher G-forces than men, that means they can make tighter turns around corners and accelerate quicker on straight sections.

No, he was called that by Jenson "drama queen" Button who got all upset because he didn't win a race

Yes very good "bluenote." How big and strong you are. Would love to see you tell that to her face!

'Move over, Lewis Hamilton?' Please give it a rest. She isn't even close to becoming an F1 driver much less winning an F1 race or even one championship. Good luck to her, as I don't have anything against her racing against the boys but she has a long way to go to reach Hamilton's level.
