//MICHELE MOUTON. Michèle Mouton is a renowned French former rally driver who made a significant impact on the world of motorsport during her career in the 1970s and 1980s. She is not only celebrated for her exceptional driving skills but also for her pioneering role as one of the first female rally drivers to achieve success in the male-dominated sport. Mouton’s achievements in the World Rally Championship include victories in prestigious events like the Rallye Sanremo and the Tour de Corse. She finished second in the drivers’ championship in 1982, marking one of her career highlights. After her rally career, Mouton also participated in the Paris-Dakar Rally, a grueling off-road endurance race. She competed in the race multiple times, further showcasing her versatility as a driver. In 1984, Michèle Mouton competed in the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, one of the most challenging and treacherous hill climb events in the world. She drove an Audi Sport Quattro S1 and achieved an impressive result, finishing second overall. Her performance was particularly noteworthy because she competed against some of the most accomplished drivers of the time on a course known for its steep grades and high altitude. Mouton was renowned for her fearless and aggressive driving style. She would push the limits of her car and her own abilities, often taking risks that few other drivers were willing to attempt. Her fearlessness behind the wheel earned her the respect of fellow competitors and fans alike. «I don’t feel at all».

Autoart’s Pikes Peak racer a mountaintop experience … Imagine, if you can, driving up a winding 12.42-mile long mountain road, mostly gravel and dirt with no guardrails and sheer drops sometimes thousands of feet straight down to certain death, should you slip over the edge. Then imagine doing it for time and with a 600 horsepower rally car capable of more than 120 mph in a burst. That’s what…

Heredero de Pikes Peak: Audi y Ken Block presentan espectacular Audi S1 Hoonitron eléctrico

Audi y Ken Block han estrenado el nuevo Audi S1 Hoonitron, una bestia eléctrica para realizar todo tipo de piruetas y drift que Block mostrará en su total capacidad en una futura Elektrikhana basada en sus clásicas Gymkhanas que lo hicieron famoso en YouTube. El modelo de Audi hace clara alusión a la historia de la marca de los cuatro anillos en la subida de Pikes Peak con el Audi Sport quattro S1 que dominó la carrera en los 80 con pilotos como Michele Mouton, Bobby Unser y Walter Rohl

El Audi S1 Hoonitron está basado en la tecnología que ha hecho realidad el espectacular  Audi RS e-tron GT y también el nuevo Audi RS Q e-tron que debutará en el Dakar 2022, con el que además comparte la decoración.

El modelo de Block contará con dos motores eléctricos, all wheel drive, estándares de seguridad nivel FIA en el cockpit y un chasis liviano y resistente de fibra de carbono. Block ya manejó esta nueva bestia en noviembre. "Audi me dio la oportunidad de probarlo durante unos días en Alemania", dice Ken Block. “Estoy familiarizado con una amplia variedad de autos que usan motores y transmisiones de combustión interna, pero había muchas cosas nuevas que debía aprender aquí. Hacer un donut a 150 km / h directamente desde cero, solo con el pie derecho, es una experiencia completamente nueva para mí. Nuestro trabajo se centró en conseguir acostumbrarme al coche. Mi agradecimiento a todo el equipo de Audi Sport por su excelente trabajo en equipo ”.

“La colaboración con Audi es una asociación muy especial para mí. La marca y su pasión por los deportes de motor me motivaron a entrar en los rallies ”, complementa Ken Block, añadiendo que ya está pensando en la Elektrikhana. “Que Audi ahora haya desarrollado este coche para mí y mi equipo, y se haya unido a nosotros en nuestro próximo proyecto, ha hecho realidad un sueño para mí. El Hoonitron está escribiendo el próximo capítulo de nuestra historia y llevando nuestra historia de Gymkhana al futuro ".

“Cuando escuchamos por primera vez sobre este proyecto, todo el equipo se emocionó de inmediato: tuvimos la oportunidad de desarrollar un automóvil que combina un ícono de nuestra marca con el futuro”, dice el diseñador jefe de Audi, Marc Lichte sobre el trabajo realizado principalmente en Audi Sport en Neckarsulm y en la sede de diseño de Inglostadt. “Se trataba de crear una interpretación moderna y totalmente eléctrica del S1 Pikes Peak. La línea de tiempo fue extremadamente ajustada: mientras que nuestro proceso de diseño normalmente toma de uno a un año y medio, solo tuvimos cuatro semanas desde el primer dibujo hasta el diseño final. Estuvimos en contacto constante con Ken Block y su equipo y participamos en intercambios intensivos ".

El equipo de Audi ha abordado ya dos proyectos revolucionarios en poco tiempo con el Audi RS Q e-tron del Dakar debutando el próximo mes después de poco más de un año de trabajo.

1986 Audi Sport quattro S1 Pikes Peak

[911legendsneverdie]

Quite an uncommon view! Unloading an @Audi Sport Quattro S1 rally legend from a Porsche trailer. 😂 The S1 was a variant of the Quattro developed for homologation for Group B rallying in 1984. 🚗 © Photo: @zwart #audi #s1 #röhrl __________ HISTORY: At the end of 1985 the Audi Sport Quattro S1 E2 as an update to the Audi Sport Quattro S1. The car featured an inline 5-cylinder engine that displaced 2,110 cc (128.8 cu in) and generated an officially quoted power output figure of 480 PS (353 kW; 473 hp). 🚗 However, the turbocharger utilised a recirculating air system, with the aim of keeping the unit spinning at high rpm, when the driver closed the throttle, either to back off during cornering, or on gearshifts. 💨 This allowed the engine to resume full power immediately after the resumption of full throttle, reducing turbo lag. The actual power figure was in excess of 507 PS (373 kW; 500 hp) at 8,000 rpm. Also the weight was reduced to 1,090 kg (2,403 lb) so the S1 could accelerate from 0-100 km/h (62 mph) in just 3.1 seconds! Some of the cars were even supplied with a "power-shift gearbox", a forerunner of the DSG technology. 😎👌🏻 In 1985 the S1 E2 made its debut at Rally Argentina, with Blomqvist driving. This variant was successful in the rally circuit, with Rally Legend Röhrl and Christian Geistdörfer winning the 1985 San Remo Rally. A modified version of the E2, was also driven by Michèle Mouton. 👩🏻‍🦱 The S1 E2 would become the final Group B car produced by Audi, with the works team withdrawing from the Championship following the 1986 rally in Portugal. 🇵🇹 The final factory cars of 1986 were rated at 600 PS (441 kW; 592 hp) what made them true monsters! 🤯 In 1987 the car won the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb driven by Walter Röhrl. With his victory Röhrl set a new record for the 19.99 kilometre mountain route to the summit of Pikes Peak in the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. Röhrl needed only 10 minutes and 47.85 seconds for the Highway, which at that time still had a continuous unpaved road surface. This made him the first driver to win on this track with a running time of less than 11 minutes. 🙏🏻 https://www.instagram.com/p/B79aYe3IXTw/?igshid=1qlt855s6zjc0
