Women car racers in Iran have been awarded prizes for the first time in the history of the Islamic republic.
At a racing event for women organised by Iran's automobile federation, there was one woman who many in Iran believe could outperform men.
Dozens applauded and cheered as a tiny figure in a blue headscarf appeared on the stage.
At 28, Laleh Seddigh is known for her stunning looks and legendary driving skills.
A PhD student from Tehran, she has been nicknamed "a little Schumacher" after the German Formula 1 champion. She has now been given the title of Iran's best female racing driver.
