The Black Sirius racing team, headed up by ‘gentleman driver’ Philippe Demanet, has announced that Camille Gottlieb, Princess Stéphanie of Monaco’s youngest daughter and the founder of the anti-drink driving association, BeSafe Monaco, will be joining the crew for the E-Rallye Monte-Carlo this autumn.
Scheduled to take place between 23rd and 26th October, the 100% electric E-Rallye Monte-Carlo has gained a reputation over the years as being a challenging course suited to drivers who enjoy tackling a variety of terrains.
The event, which is now in its eighth edition and is organised by the Automobile Club of Monaco (ACM), regularly attracts top names from the rally racing world and the 2024 edition is set to be no different.
This year, Camille Gottlieb, the anti-drink driving campaigner, influencer and niece of Prince Albert II of Monaco, will also be participating in the rally. She has confirmed that she will be joining the Black Sirius racing team alongside social media sensation Lila Corsaint, known as LilaSpeach, whose posts show that girls and cars can mix very well indeed, and Team Principal, driver and philanthropist Philippe Demanet.
Demanet, along with Marie Dubos and Thierry Revel, a former head concierge at the Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo, is a renowned car enthusiast who has turned his passion into a philanthropic endeavour. Through their ‘They Are The Champions’ initiative, Demanet, Dubos and Revel sponsor special events for disadvantaged children in and around the Principality of Monaco. Last year, they set up a day of driving at the Prestige Karting du Luc track in the Varois village of Le Luc and have equally big plans in store for the 2024 event, which will be held later this year.
