Reading an old Englebert magazine from1933

I saw the good performance from this lady with a M.L.C. on a Portuguese Rally

The same ? driver took part at the Bol d'Or with same car

I supposethis car could actually be a rebadged Amilcar

More info

Maria La Caze drove No. 21 Amilcar in February 1930 in the Rallye Féminin Paris - Saint Raphael.

In 1931 she drove No. 32 Amilcar.

In September 1931, in the meeting des Routes Pavées/Six Heures de Pont-à-Marcq, she drove No. 41 Ruby engined M.L.C. in the 1,1-litre catégorie sport sans compresseur.
The M.L.C. = MaLiCe looks like an Amilcar CGSS chassis - re-engined with a Ruby.

Another image of her here at the start of the II Grande Prova de Resistência in July 1933, probably the Portuguese rally you mentioned:
