There's actually been 4 or 5 that have or are now driving F1. You would still have to start at the basics and start winning races. I think CART is a start. Depending on your natural abilities and your past performances you get the sponsors and recognition and someone will be knocking on your door.
1992 when Giovanna Amati of Italy drove for Brabham. She was entered in the first 3 races of the season (South Africa, Mexico, Brazil) but did not qualify for any of them. She was then removed from the ride and replaced by Damon Hill.
Maria Teresa de Filippis raced in 1958 and 1959, she made 3 starts, and earned 0 points.

You need to be very rich and be a very good driver and work your way through the ranks until you become an Formula One driver if you are good enough.
Both are technology-driven forms of racing where the driver has become almost irrelevent to success.
The only driver who has done this was Mario AndrettiHe won the Indy 500 in 1969 He won the Daytona 500 in 1967 He become the WDC in Formula 1 in 1978
