EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the thrilling world of Formula One racing in 1978. The image captures Lady Driver Divina Galica behind the wheel of her Hesketh 308E as she prepares to take on the BRDC International Trophy at Silverstone, England. As the first reserve for the race, Galica's determination and passion shine through her focused gaze. The wet track adds an extra layer of challenge to this already intense competition. The spray from other cars creates a mesmerizing visual effect, highlighting the speed and power that these machines possess. It is a true testament to both driver skill and machine performance. Unfortunately, fate had different plans for Galica that day. After just eleven laps into the race, disaster struck as she crashed out, ending her participation prematurely. Little did anyone know at that moment that it would also mark the end of Hesketh's presence in Formula One racing. This print serves as a powerful reminder of both triumphs and setbacks in motorsport history. It encapsulates not only one woman's bold pursuit of success but also showcases the unpredictable nature of this exhilarating sport.
