Forty years ago in northwest Italy, something truly remarkable happened. Michele Mouton won the 1981 Sanremo Rally, making her the first (and so far only) woman to win a WRC event. The Frenchwoman is a hero to Molly Taylor. She still is for so many other people, too, but Taylor went on to follow in her footsteps by becoming a pioneer, as the first (and so far only) woman to win the Australian Rally Championship, in 2016. Before then, the first woman to have taken a national title overall was Mouton, who won the 1986 German series.
