firstly, not all Air Force pilots must pull heavy Gs for two hours straight. And it’s not just a matter of “tolerating” the Gs, but tolerating them while operating an F1 car as precisely as the other drivers. The more strength and endurance a driver has the easier that will be.
Secondly, there are like 20,000+ Air Force pilots, so there is way more opportunity there. Do you think if they hand picked the 30 best fighter pilots any would be women? Or alternatively, if we looked at the top 20,000 motorsport drivers, maybe there would be 5% women.
lastly, I’m not saying it’s ONLY biology, of course there are additional factors involved as well.
