I'm going for 70's still, so Devina Galica the other?

I know there were female drivers in the 50's, but no idea what their names were, so if it's a 50's question I'm out too.

Isn't there a link between Brambilla's win at Austria in the wet and Lombardi getting the only point (well, half of one) by a female in that GP, or was it a different race?

Different race, Lombardi got her 1/2 point in Spain '75 when the race was stopped due to an accident that killed some spectators.

Anyone going to give the GP they entered? (the only time in F1 history that more than 1 woman entered). c'mon, a bit of crowd 'aggro' because the local favourite wasn't (originally) allowed to take the restart. I thought there might be a bit of a rush to answer it after that clue.

Bah, that too easy!

Okay, bonus point, what is said to be the reason behind him getting the Lotus drive in 1986?

Check out the ancestory though, am sure at some point the gene pool turns backwards on itself............. :-

Crichton-Stuart is the son of the 6th Marquess of Bute and his former wife Beatrice Weld-Forester. On his father's side, he is a direct male-line descendant of King Robert II of Scotland through an illegitimate line, and a female-line descendant of King William IV of the United Kingdom, by his mistress Dorothy Jordan, through their daughter, Elizabeth Hay, Countess of Erroll. As William IV was Queen Victoria's uncle, the Marquess of Bute is a distant cousin of Queen Elizabeth II. On his father's side he is also a descendant of Bernard, Earl of Granard and Beatrice Mills Forbes, an American socialite who was the daughter of Ogden Mills and Ruth "Tiny" Livingston Mills, a descendant of the Livingston family and the Schuyler family from New York.
On his mother's side, he is twice descended from King Charles II of England and Scotland through his eldest illegitimate son, James, Duke of Monmouth.

well, in all honesty, most of the aristocracy are related to themselves multiple times. It's why they're all a bit thick.
