EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the National Motor Museum, we are transported back to the thrilling world of motorsport in 1937. The image showcases the remarkable Kaye Petre Austin 7 team at Brooklands, capturing a moment frozen in time that celebrates female empowerment and automotive excellence. Kaye Petre, an extraordinary racing driver ahead of her time, fearlessly takes control of her sleek Austin 7 car as she prepares for another exhilarating race at the iconic Brooklands circuit. With determination etched on her face and hands firmly gripping the steering wheel, she embodies strength and passion in equal measure. Brooklands, known as the birthplace of British motorsport, provides a fitting backdrop for this historic snapshot. Its legendary track witnessed countless triumphs and challenges throughout its existence. Against this hallowed ground, Kaye Petre's presence shines brightly as she defies societal norms by pursuing her love for speed with unwavering dedication. This classic photograph not only captures a pioneering woman breaking barriers but also immortalizes an era when motor racing was truly raw and authentic. It serves as a testament to those who dared to challenge conventions and pushed boundaries within a male-dominated industry. As we gaze upon this evocative image today, let us celebrate Kaye Petre's legacy while recognizing how far we have come in achieving gender equality both on and off the racetrack.
