It is a hugely embarrassing situation to find myself in, I'm a professional driver and to be caught speeding and to have my licence taken away for speeding, it would have an effect on my reputation.

My fundamental aim is to drive female talent - it's not just to find the next female Formula One superstar.

Your gender becomes irrelevant when you are in a performance-based environment.

Ultimately, when you're out on track with your helmet on, nobody can see the driver. Nobody can judge you on what you look like if your hair is long or short, if you're black or you're white, if you're male or female. All that matters is your performance.

Sometimes I work in my office, just reading material, meeting writers, working on scripts. Other times, I'm on location. There's a lot of variety.

I can't give up and sacrifice my career, my future for a man, especially being engaged for so many years.

I never considered writing as a career - it was always a creative outlet for me and something I just loved to do.

And finally I begin to have such a success in my examinations that I found myself in a career you see.
