Winter Olympics great recalls dream F1 switch: ‘You can’t get pregnant’
American Winter Olympics star Lindsey Vonn considered pursuing a career in Formula 1 but was advised not to get pregnant. Despite facing a ruptured ACL in her knee, Vonn is making a comeback to the Winter Olympics in Milan-Cortina after her last appearance in PyeongChang 2018, where she won a gold medal in downhill skiing at the Vancouver 2010 games. Vonn reminisced about driving on the Formula 1 track in Spielberg, Austria, and reaching high speeds on the autobahn with alpine skiing champion Maria Hofl-Reisch. She contemplated a switch to Formula 1 racing but was deterred by the commitment required and the prohibition on pregnancy. Ultimately, Vonn decided that the restrictions imposed on pursuing a career in F1 did not align with her desires and aspirations.
