Australian rally driver and world champion athlete Molly Taylor shares a behind-the-scenes look at her career in motorsport through a new documentary Drive Like a Girl.

Produced by MaD Garage and Unleaded Films, Drive Like a Girl premiered earlier this month on 7mate and 7plus, and provides insight to Taylor’s story so far – the ups and downs of motorsport, the steadfast community that makes it all possible, as well as the often untold sacrifices made to maintain a career behind the wheel.

Taylor, who recently returned from Saudi Arabia where she and co-driver Kevin Hansen won the inaugural FIA Extreme H World Cup, reflected on the production of the new documentary as a major milestone in her career.

“It’s something we’ve been working for about two years, so for it to see the light of day is a special thing,” Taylor said.

“We wanted to show not only our season last year in rally and Extreme E, but also a behind the scenes that goes into making motorsport happen, all the high and the lows, the nights in the workshop, the teamwork and all of the people that volunteer their time to make it happen.

“Just trying to be a fly on the wall and offer a unique perspective, one that covers our experience in motorsport.”

Molly Taylor grew up in a rallying family, with her mother Coral a six-time Australian Rally Champion co-driver.

She first got behind the wheel at her father Mark’s rally school before quickly making her mark, winning back-to-back F16 class titles in the Australian Rally Championship in 2006 and 2007.

At just 20-years-old, Molly moved to the UK to chase her dream, earning a place in the Pirelli Star Driver Program and competing in the World Rally Championship Academy.

She went on to become the the first woman to score a Junior WRC podium, and a consistent force in European rallying.

Taylor continues to compete internationally while also championing opportunities for women in motorsport and inspiring the next generation of drivers, partially through her work as a mentor in Motorsport Australia Girls on Track program, and most recently through the new documentary.

“Everyone’s experience will be different, but I think hopefully it sheds light on conversations and perspectives that haven’t really been spoken about because there just hasn’t been as many women in motorsport and we’re getting more and more, which is fantastic,” Taylor added.

“We’ve still got a lot of work to do, so hopefully we can be a big part of that change and make a space where more women can have more fulfilling and longer careers in motorsport.”

Featuring guest interviews from motorsport broadcaster Greg Rust and commentator Richard Craill, Drive Like A Girl is available to stream on 7plus.
