Works driver for British Motor Corporation

[edit]

Deleted "Whiteman was a works driver for British Motor Corporation (BMC) throughout her racing career." Neither of her two Bathurst 500 starts were in BMC factory entries.

Last lap pass in 1967 Gallaher 500

[edit]

Deleted "Whiteman was driving her finishing lap when she got a slipstream from the Geoghegan brothers down Conrod straight, sailing past the other Morris 1100S to come in just ahead of them, finishing 4th in their class." Her car actually finished two laps ahead of the other Morris 1100S. GTHO (talk) 08:35, 8 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The first ever all-female team to race at Bathurst

[edit]

I am deleting the statement "Whiteman and Richardson formed the first ever all-female team to race at Bathurst," as that honour probably belongs to Lorraine Hill and Virginia Lighezzolo who contested the 1962 Bathurst Six Hour Classic together in a Skoda.
