The rally community seems to have learned to behave in the context of quarantine and we will no longer have those empty weekends as we did a year ago. Italians often have at least a couple of rallies taking place on the same weekend. Everything happens without spectators, but they will come back. In Australia, Philip Island hosted the GT World Challenge Australia race, where after a long break, the stands were no longer filled with ghosts but with motorsport fans.

A couple of months ago, I had the great pleasure of hearing one really extremely interesting interview. So I had a thought, to write about another woman in the rally world. She is, among other things, one of the most famous female co-drivers, 1892m. receiving the Halda Award – the highest evaluation trophy that a reader of the pace notes can receive. Plus she’s one of two people in history who has earned points at the World Rally Championship as a driver and as a co-driver. And here last week, Mrs. Fabrizia Pons put another cup on her shelf.
