Winter story with Fabrizia Pons

There are few co-drivers that transcend and achieve the fame of a driver, but Fabrizia Pons is one of them.

A native of Turin, Italy, she is perhaps the most successful woman ever to sit in a World Rally Championship car, and one of only two people ever to score World Rally Championship points as both driver and co-driver. Best known for her partnership with French star, Michèle Mouton, Fabrizia guided the pair to the first WRC win by a female team, at San Remo in 1981.

That record is still up for grabs some 40 years later and equally, Fabrizia Pons is still in the co-driver’s seat.
