Welsh speed queen Sara Williams has underlined her first successful foray into the French Renault Clio R3T Trophy that saw her competing – literally – at a high level throughout France.
Driving in rallies that took her and co-driver Mark Glennester into the Cols of Mont Blanc, Midi Pyrenees and the Mountains that form the backdrop to the Cote D’Azur were just a few of the challenges she faced in 2017.
Those distinctions were added to at the NEC Exhibition Centre in Birmingham Autosport Show in Birmingham as Sara collected the prestigious GoldStar Elite Award presented by the British Women’s Racing Drivers Club – an award that she first won two years ago.
This latest win confirms her continued level of success and the respect in which she is held by her peers. That distinction was added to by the news that the Welsh star also won the Louise Aitken Walker Trophy for the Rally section of the BWRDC, to be presented at the club’s Presentation Dinner on 4th February.
Sara also contributes to motorsport by representing the UK in the FIA Women in Motorsport Commission and is also the Welsh Association of Motorclubs’ Women’s Representative.
