"Can you play any other tune?"

"Can you play any other tune?"

How times have changed since James Bond, in the guise of Roger Moore, mocked women drivers in 1977's The Spy Who Loved Me by explaining that reverse meant backwards.

Aston Martin Cognizant Formula One™ Team has appointed W Series racer and No Time To Die stunt driver Jessica Hawkins as Driver Ambassador. The 26-year-old from Poole will also compete in this year's W Series for lady drivers.

Jessica is sure not to let out any spoilers about Daniel Craig's swansong as 007:

"I enjoy sending cars sideways as much as I enjoy racing, so as soon as I get the opportunity, I will be doing that in an Aston Martin.

"I am heavily anticipating the new James Bond movie and cannot wait to see it. I can't say too much about the film, but I can say that not all the cars made it out alive.

"We filmed a jump which was about 30 metres long. It felt like I was as high as it was long. As soon as I hit the jump, all I could see was the grey sky, and all I could think was 'this is going to hurt!' Luckily it didn't, which was good because we did it eight times".
