Is Michelle Yeoh...

[Europa1]

...an officer of the FIA, the Spanish motorsport governing body, the Circuit de Catalunya or the race organising committee?

I know she is married to Jean Todt, but I was just wondering what she was doing lining up with the officials for the anthem.

Non! Its President Napoleon's bit on the side and she is accompanying him on a 4 year global tour ('holiday') sponsored by the FiA.
Well that's what it looks like as Todt certainly isn't doing much F1 related 'work'.

The ONLY Female F1 World champion. Hence her inclusion in this photo, of Bernie, Todt and all the surviving F1 Champions (less Piquet, P Hill and Rakkikkonnenn)

FIA gravy train.

Great photo. I remember seeing a documentary about all those drivers doing laps in their cars when they got together at that race, anyone know what it's called?

More to the point, can someone identify all the drivers in the photo? there are one or two I don't recognise!
