RICHARD BRANSON'S CURVY PLAN FOR F1
SIR RICHARD BRANSON has been foiled in a sensational plan to put even more curves into Formula One.
The tycoon wanted to squeeze a female driver into the cockpit of his newlyformed Virgin Racing team
for next season.
Branson and his backroom boys combed the planet for a luscious Virgin racer to tackle the likes of champ Jenson Button in a 220mph 19-race showdown.
America’s knockout queen of speed Danica Patrick, an IndyCar winner and regular front-runner, topped his targets – but she opted to stay in the USA.
Team boss Alex Tai said: “There isn’t really a female out there right now who could do it.
“This is a really physical and exhausting sport and they would find it hard to cope.”
Billionaire Branson argued: “I would have loved to have had a looker like Danica drive.
“She is not only good and quick, she’s a stunner.
“I believe there is room for women drivers in F1.”
