Published 2023-03-26
She was at her peak in the golden years of Rallye driving: Group B, 1981 - 1986. Also known as „monsters“ with more than 500 hp on a weight less than 1000 kg.
She could keep up and beat some of the greatest rallye drivers ever: Röhrl, Vatanen, Mikkola, Toivonen...
I am incredibly impressed with Michèle Mouton, her character and skills are amazing .
Also her favorite Co-Driver Fabrizia Pons was fantastic and certainly a big part of her success.
This video shows Michèle at the hill climb at pikes peak 1985. Were she has won with an incredible performance, beating some of the big US favorites such as Rod Millen & Bobby Unser.
Michèle sets a new all time record that day as well.
Since then, she’s still the only woman who has ever won at pikes peak 🏆
Thanks Michèle 🙏

Greatest female driver ever

What a woman! She was crazy enough for Group B, she was great at it and she was beautiful! I'm so glad she won Pikes Peak because I read that some people there were rude to her when she came. Not only did she win, she destroyed them! ❤

Ah yes ! I spoke to her on the Scottish Rally in 1986 , thereabouts , she was the most talented Group B driver ever . A gift to Audi !

I grew up through the group B years and Michelle was so special a sport dominated by men but she was determined skilled and so fast ..she had class and a stare that could stop you in your tracks too

The 1980s the best of all times !

To me her win, and others, before Pikes was paved are more impressive. Was way more dangerous. Wish it was never paved, because it was a cool course.
