Rally legend Michele Mouton says that she can’t wait to get to Morocco after testing the Porsche that she will use on the Rallye International du Maroc.
Along with a number of other stars – including former Dakar Rally winner Bruno Saby and former Maroc winner Bob Neyret – Mouton launched the event to over 30 representatives of the international media at a day in Paris.
The competitors used the gravel test stage belonging to former Citroen factory driver Philippe Wambergue, which is so demanding that it is still used by Citroen’s all-conquering World Rally Championship team today.
“It was a great experience to go to Paris and drive the car,” said Mouton, who previously drove a Porsche 911 on the London-Sydney Marathon. “It’s given me a real appetite for competition again. I don’t really know what to expect from the stages but I think they’ll be quite different from the Safari stages. My main aim is just to enjoy myself: I know it’s going to be a fantastic experience.”
