Agreed!
It is not higher level events that shape you, it is the raw talent you have and level of professionalism you learn in lower categories that shape you into a world class driver.

Molinaro I know has done a lot of testing with various machinery but I don't know how many kms of testing.

She has contacts with various people in the sport including Mouton and her former co-driver (who's also Italian) so she must have picked up something.

Still, every world class driver today began small, Mouton included, so why they too don't begin at that level is beyind me.
