Easy?  I don't think so.  How about a young Clay Regazzoni?

This young lady is not as famous as the iconic Bond girl. She just happened to be the car builder's daughter.

The year could be right, I have contradictory data ranging from 1947 to 1949, but the country is wrong.

No princess. Have a close look at your picture and it will lead you to the name.

Heidi Berger was the first Swiss female (and probably the youngest in Europe) to obtain a commercial helicopter pilot licence.
She was born on the 1st of Decembe 1941 in St. Gallen and is the daughter of the inventor (and builder of experimental helicopters) Hans Berger (1912-1994). Her career as pilot started very soon. In fact at the age of 6 she was already at the steering wheel of a mini automobile powered by a jet engine built by her father!

Yes, well done. I have her as Heidy Berger, though. One more point for you.
I'm not sure whether the car was called "Young Switzerland" as it was written on the front of it.
