Michelle no asterisks ever. Massive talent, but the biggest badass in the most badass car in the most badass years of the most badass motorsport. Who in motorsport wouldn't take her call? No one.

Michele Mouton, The black volcano, The super woman, Wonder Woman. She was the best, She is the best, She always will be the best. What a beautiful woman inside and out. Who can forget the send the nouns of the Quattro ?? Who can forget the look in Michele's eyes ?? We will never forget she's number one ☝️
