Career

Mälkönen won WRC3 co-drivers' championship in 2022, making her the first woman to do so.[2] The two top drivers in the class (Lauri Joona and Jan Černý) changed co-drivers during the season, while Mälkönen continued as Sami Pajari's co-driver throughout the season. Previously, no woman had won the championship in any WRC class.[2]

Mälkönen previously competed in show jumping, but after her horse was injured, she decided to change to rallying. Mälkönen's father has also driven a rally. Mälkönen herself made her debut in 2012. AKK-Motorsport organized coaching, in which she participated in the entrance exams.[2]
