The endurance which helped her to overcome obstacles and grow up in a world as masculine as that of Formula 1, has also helped her to recover from the terrible accident she suffered and face up to the future and its challenges with vitality. María de Villota is a model of resilience and her story reminds us of the importance of the simple fact of living, so often forgotten in western society.
