Lucy O'Reilly Schell: The Forgotten Force Behind French Motorsports
Tuesday Mar 14, 2023
Tuesday Mar 14, 2023
In this episode of The Logbook, our History of Motorsports series, featuring Lauren Goodman, she delves into the life and achievements of Lucy O'Reilly Schell. Born in 1896 in Paris, Lucy was a pioneering figure in French motorsports, known for her significant contributions as a rally driver and team owner. Goodman's research, inspired by a Maserati Schell entered in the 1940 Indy 500, highlights Lucy's legacy, from her early involvement in racing to her role in revolutionizing the Delahaye car company. Lucy and her husband Laurie were a powerful team, with Lucy emerging as a decisive driver and team manager, creating notable race car models and achieving significant victories. She also played a crucial role in promoting French motorsport internationally, notably at the Indianapolis 500. Despite the challenges and her eventual retreat from the sport, Lucy's influence persisted through her son Harry, who continued the racing legacy. The presentation underscores Lucy's underappreciated role in motorsport history and advocates for greater recognition of her contributions.
