4. As with Champagne or a unique perfume, the Princesses Rally owes its success to
a secret, inimitable, magic formula. From the moment you sign up, you become an
actress in an unforgettable road movie. The totally enchanting shoot begins at Paris
and concludes on the sparkling beaches of Saint-Tropez. But the powerful
memories continue throughout the year, until the next year’s adventure chimes in!
Following in the footsteps of the award-winning movie star – the pilots and co-pilots carefully
prepare their performance to shine when the cameras start to roll: finding an agent who has faith in
their potential, testing the cars to see which one fits their style....
Like every leading lady, each participant dons her stage make-up to dazzle the fans when the
spotlights catch her coming round the bend. She packs just the right wardrobe to reflect her true,
inner character. She learns her lines to a tee. She focuses all her energy on the task at hand… and
when the director shouts, “Action!” she is fully into her role: a passionate, determined driver with
irresistible charm and a thirst for living that will take her 1500 km across the French countryside,
without ever exceeding the average speed limit of 50km/h. The director gives them cues such as
“spice it up” and “let it rip” so the thrill can be shared by all when the cinematographer calls “that’s a
wrap!” And when each day is done, the cast and crew slip into eveningwear and revel in the well
deserved pampering of the grand hotels that welcome us with open arms, like lovers, showering us
with thoughtful gifts.
In this movie, you are the Princesses of the road: headstrong and brave, ready and willing to face
the challenges that lie ahead, the hairpin curves and the wide open skies without every losing their
sense of fair play, or their picture perfect make-up. Outstanding pilots and co-pilots, prepared to
handle engine breakdowns and flat tyres, poor timings and low rankings… with a smile, like Marilyn
Monroe.
Princesses brimming with natural panache, able to outshine even the finest motor sport
professionals.
Enter the realm of movie-making magic; enter the 13th annual Princesses Rally.
This film can be yours!

5. Princesses’ Rally
Its Origins
Viviane Zaniroli is a passionate fan of classic automobiles and road rallies. Over
the years, she noticed that women, who massively participate in these exciting
events, are often relegated to playing the role of co-pilot.
She wanted women to have be able to take the wheel, to be the star, to live the
adventure more fully. So, to make this dream come true, she drew her inspiration
from the Paris - Saint Raphaël (1929 - 1974) and created the fabulously original
Princesses’Rally in the year 2000.
Appealing to women’s natural sense of elegance and competitive spirit,
the Princesses’ Rally has become a “must” in the international women’s
motor sport world in just ten short years!
A regularity rally
The goal in this type of event is to stay as close as possible to the targeted
average speed while covering a set distance along a scheduled itinerary.
High speed “racing” capabilities are thus not part of the selection criteria.
Winners are those who manage to navigate their way through the course while
carefully maintaining the ideal average speed. The ideal average speed is
determined based on the vehicle’s age, so that older cars can effectively
compete with younger models.
A Regularity Rally is an athletic challenge that requires considerable focus
and concentration with a keen sense for precise details and extreme
accuracy.
