EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the Scottish Rally of 1938. The image captures a thrilling moment as E Violet Watson, an accomplished female rally driver, skillfully maneuvers her Frazer-Nash BMW 319/55 past Bill Brunell's Standard Avon Flying Sixteen. The vintage cars stand out against the rustic countryside backdrop, showcasing the elegance and power of these classic automobiles from the 1930s. Miss Watson's BMW exudes sophistication with its sleek design and impressive performance capabilities. This snapshot in time highlights not only the beauty of these vehicles but also celebrates women's involvement in motorsport during an era when it was predominantly male-dominated. E Violet Watson defied societal norms by fearlessly taking on challenging rallies like the Scottish Rally. As we delve into this piece of history, we can't help but appreciate the passion and determination displayed by both drivers. Their dedication to their craft is evident as they navigate through winding lanes and rural roads with precision. This photograph serves as a reminder that even in a world dominated by men, women like E Violet Watson were breaking barriers and making their mark in motor racing. It stands as a testament to their resilience and showcases how far we have come in terms of gender equality within motorsports today.
