The WRC is the FIA World Rally Championship, a tough motorsport using rally cars on real roads around the world. Watch the best rally drivers battle on gravel and asphalt roads with mud, rain, dust, ice and heat! Watch high speed action as the rally drivers power slide and drift round narrow corners, go flat out over a big jump or through a watersplash, handbrake turn round a hairpin, survive a big moment, or have a massive crash! Rally requires maximum attack and careful tactics to become world rally champion.

Each rally has timed sections called special stages, on closed roads. Drivers complete these stages as quickly as possible. A co-driver reads pace notes that explain the hazards ahead. Rally drivers use the same rally car to travel to each stage on public roads, following normal traffic regulations. The crew which completes all the stages in the shortest time is the rally winner. Championship points are won using the same scoring system as Formula 1. The championship is administered by Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA), motorsport's world governing body.

Over 30 countries have hosted WRC rallies. Rally Monte Carlo, Rally Argentina, Rally Finland, Rally Portugal, Tour de Corse on Corsica, France, Rally Sardegna on Sardinia, Italy, Safari Rally in Kenya, Acropolis Rally in Greece, Rally New Zealand, Rally Australia, Rally Japan, Rally GB, Rally Catalunya, Rallye Deutschland, Rally Mexico and many more.

Some of the world's greatest drivers have won the FIA World Rally Championship for Drivers, like Colin McRae, Carlos Sainz, Walter Röhrl, Stig Blomqvist, Petter Solberg, Ott Tänak. The list of world rally champions includes many Finnish rally drivers like Juha Kankkunen, Tommi Mäkinen, Ari Vatanen, Marcus Grönholm, Hannu Mikkola. French drivers have had success with Sébastien Ogier, and 9 times world champion Sébastien Loeb. Famous drivers from other motorsports have come to try rally driving like Ken Block from Rallycross, and Robert Kubica and Kimi Räikkönen from F1.

Car companies compete for the prestigious FIA World Rally Championship for Manufacturers awarded to the most successful WRC constructor. Winners include Citroen, Hyundai, Volkswagen and Peugeot. Ford have had success with the Ford Escort, Ford Focus and Ford Fiesta when the M-Sport team won in 2017.
The 1980's featured the iconic Group B rally cars like the Lancia 037 and Delta S4, Peugeot 205 T16, MG Metro 6R4, Ford RS200 and Audi Quattro.

Big up for Oliver! As someone who is similar age to him, this is big inspiration! Just the thought of being their is huge.

This was pretty good, thanks to WRC+ for sharing these free SHAKEDOWNS.

It was quite impressive what Craig Breen did for this run, Kalle is an obvious Colin McRae in the making and Katsuto is showing more confidence.

Aside from that and more, the conditions are pretty awesome, never followed a Rally in the Artic before, so this is definitely an interesting first. Also knowing that this rally is at the home of speed, Rally Finland, I can only wait to see what spectacular speeds and saves are going to go down this weekend.

As usual, I am team Ogier, all the way, am hoping he retires on a high note. But I'm proud of Kalle, being someone close to my age it's really empowering. Also seeing Oliver debute in the Artic is awesome. You guys should check out his training session with Sebastien Loeb (he arrives in great fashion).

I'm guessing that paddle shifters are verboten in the R5/Rally 2 cars, correct?

[alainpommepuy]

I find it fascinating that Taka speaks English with an Italian accent. He sounds a bit like Rossi actually.
Did he spend a lot of his childhood there, or did he learn English from a native Italian?
Most native Japanese speakers have a lot of trouble with R’s and L’s when they learn English (especially L’s because that tongue inflection doesn’t really exist in the Japanese language)
