But she is a bit of a babe though...
Susie Wolff, Female Drivers and Formula One

- Start date
Which is one more than a lot of the men have ever achieved...

I can't believe she's only scored 1 more Indy win than me. At least I have the same number of DTM wins as Susie Wolf so it's not all bad. 
Leave it out mate I'm trying to get in touch with my feminist side here..

You also have the same number of F1 wins as Chris Amon!
If you put Patrick into a Mercedes she would be trouncing probably at least two-thirds of the field. IMO, at best, only a half-dozen of the field today is there on merit. And today, and, indeed, for the past 10 years, the WDC is more about the car you are in than the abilities of the driver.

Exactly..
Quite true. But, in that era, he was the rarity, NOT the majority as is the case today!
As did Damon Hill but they were not sponsored they risked everything by taking out bank loans to pursue their passion which isn't quite the same thing as having a rich daddy or a banking conglomerate to back you..

Yeah but nobody is claiming that those men would do better than the F1 pay drivers. Also that win came on an oval trick, and on a day in which IndyCar held two full points races, one in Japan and one in Long Beach, for some complicated reunification reasons.

She might finish with less wins.

[SIZE=4]Il_leone[/SIZE] I'll grant you that much, but I just don't think Danica Patrick is F1 quality. She was barely Indy quality, and stats bear out that people who are good in Indy can struggle at the F1 level, so imagine how ill-suited to F1 someone who genuinely struggles in Indy is. Remember, Indy requires an A license, the same as GP2, and drivers coming from GP2 can struggle in F1 as well.

Dash Racing at least 20% of the current grid is probably not F1 quality
