The GREATEST female racing driver of all time

Female racing drivers get a bad rep for various reasons, with some suggesting that they will never be able to compete with men on the world stage. Is this true, though? Because a driver by the name of Michele Mouton completely disproves that theory, as she took on the world back in the 1980s.

I'd argue people aren't really looking for inspiration. Look at how "progressive women" tear down my childhood idol, Lara Croft.

It's no surprise they overlook many women who accomplished many great things throughout history. Look up Russian Night Witches and tell me why none of that is in any of your "woke" battlefield games. I have many inspirational women to look up to, especially in sport, I just don't get any of them from modern media, I have to find them myself.

She was using Mikkola's setups as she didn't know much about setting up the car, and he also taught her to left-foot brake which was apparently critical with the Quattro. She described Mikkola as a perfect gentleman.

Lancia was at Audi's heels in '83 and Mouton was on her brink of collapse but she drove the wheels out of the Audi till a jump snapped her front left suspension which bent her brake disc and wheels and caused her to DNF. PLUS, she was the one that set up the ROC, Race of Champions where cross sport champion drivers come to this event and prove that they can infact drive anything and be crowned champions.

If i remember correctly from an interview with Röhrl, the Problem for him wasn't that Mouton was female but rather that everybody made fun of him BECAUSE she was female and in the Interview he stated that he regrets his behavior and decisions because the Title gave him nothing since he already had one (and even the first one meant nothing for him) while on the other side mouton could have made history. Maybe that was just publicity talk to the Media but if you know Röhrl you know that he is... special... and that he and Mouton really respected each other.

No, I think Dakar had its golden years in the first few years after going to South America. The terrain became more varied, the local population was actually enthusiastic, it was better in almost every way. But then of course came 2020 and they decided to move Dakar into the world's most monotonous desert because the Saudis were willing to pay for it...

She certainly IS the greatest female driver AND one of the greats, male or female, who mastered the fearsome Group B cars!

Drivers crashing and getting burned alive, cars crashing into spectators and killing people who came to watch the race, stuff like this was in Group B ''just another Tuesday''. Niki Lauda once said: ''These guys in Group B are completely insane!'' and also ''Michelle Mouton must be some sort of superwoman,to race in this category and be one of the top drivers.''
