(Italian Formula-1 Racing Driver) Lella Lombardi was an Italian racing driver who broke barriers in Formula One, a male-dominated sport. She competed in 17 Formula One World Championship Grands Prix, making history as one of only two female drivers to qualify and the sole woman to score points in the sport.
