Anyone who's taken the time to watch an entire F1 race weekend - from free practice through to qualifying, the races themselves, and the post-session interviews - can clearly see the gap. These female drivers, while ambitious and clearly passionate, are light years away from the level required in Formula 1. The raw pace, race craft, wheel-to-wheel confidence, and consistency simply aren't there. And it's not just the drivers - the entire environment around them, from the teams to the engineers, seems aware of the huge difference in quality and preparation that separates them from real F1 contenders. The sad truth is that this series, rather than elevating women in motorsport, often ends up highlighting just how far they are from the top level. The intention might be good, but the execution falls short. As it stands, the F1 Academy risks discrediting itself by showcasing talent that, frankly, doesn't belong anywhere near Formula 1 - at least not yet.
