Louise's career began in 1979 when she was entered in Ford's 'Find a Lady Rally Driver' competition, without her knowledge, by her two brothers and was a winner from 2000 entrants.
In 1990 Louise was awarded the Sir Henry Segrave Trophy which is awarded for the best performance on Land, Sea or Air by a British Subject. Louise is very proud of this award and has been lucky enough to meet lots of past winners including Lewis Hamilton and Stirling Moss when Lewis was receiving the award in 2008 at the RAC Club in London. If you would like to read more about the amazing Sir Henry Segrave and what the trophy represents you will see why Louise is so proud to be a past winner.
Her career then went on to span fourteen years.
See Louise's famous 1990 WRC crash on You Tube - after surviving this, Louise went on to become Ladies World Rally Champion in the same year.
