In this black and white portrait captured by renowned motorsport photographer Rainer Schlegelmilch, we are transported back to the thrilling atmosphere of the 1972 Spanish Grand Prix at Circuito del Jarama in Spain. The image showcases Helen Stewart, a woman breaking barriers in a male-dominated field, as she diligently keeps time in the pits during the race. With her focused gaze fixed on her stopwatch, Helen exudes an air of professionalism and expertise. Her presence is a testament to the growing inclusivity within Formula 1 racing during that era. As one of the few women involved in such a pivotal role, she symbolizes determination and resilience against societal norms. The backdrop of Circuito del Jarama adds to the allure of this photograph. The historic circuit's winding layout and picturesque surroundings create an evocative setting for this moment frozen in time. It serves as a reminder of the rich heritage and excitement associated with Formula 1 racing. Schlegelmilch's masterful composition captures both Helen's dedication and passion for motorsport while also highlighting her unique position within it.

This print is more than just an aesthetically pleasing image; it encapsulates an important chapter in motorsport history where boundaries were being pushed aside.
