Maria De Villota  (13.01.1980 - 11.10.2013)
“Maria was a little ball of energy, an amazing, incredible lady. I last saw her at the Spanish Grand Prix in May. She was blown away by how happy people were to see her. I think that really touched her.In the Suzuka paddock you could see how much her passing has affected people.  I won’t just remember her for what she achieved in motorsport. I’ll remember her for being  special, for her character and strength. It was because she was special that Maria was breaking barriers in  motorsport. It was because she was special that she looked like she had overcome such a tragic accident. She will never be forgotten in our sport.” (Susie Wolff) (x)
