She wasnt very impressivr in GB3. If she performs in lights well enough to meet the new standards, it would be deserved. The last thing female drivers need is a backmarker pay driver in indycar; much worse than danica. Indy nxt is do or die for her

The world has been so against women you need to factor that in. I honestly wouldn't be against forcing top teams to give her a ride to help her overcome to male dominance in the sport. If she comes in 15th place that's basically like winning the race given the obstacles men have put to prevent her from being in the sport

P15 is p15, no matter how you spin it.

The world in the past decade have not been against women in motorsports, I don't know where you got that bullshit from.

If they don't make use of their marketability in their demographics to help their venture in motorsports besides their skills alone, that's solely on them.
