Trailblazing racer Lella Lombardi remembered, 30 years on from her death
It was a deep irony that when Maria Grazia ‘Lella’ Lombardi became the only woman to score a World Championship point – in only her second GP, in Spain in a works March 751 in 1975 – it was actually only half a point. This was the race stopped prematurely at only 29 laps after Rolf Stommelen’s leading Hill had lost its rear wing and crashed heavily, killing onlookers.
