Sebastien Ogier Dominates Rally Chile: A Historic Victory and WRC2 Glory for Oliver Solberg!

In an electrifying display of skill and determination, Sebastien Ogier, alongside co-driver Vincent Landais, stormed to victory at the WRC Rally Chile BioBio, marking his astounding 66th career win. This triumph not only cements Ogier’s legendary status in the world of rallying but also propels him into the championship lead, now holding a razor-thin two-point advantage over his Toyota Gazoo Racing teammate, Elfyn Evans.

Kicking off the final day with a comfortable 6.3-second lead, Ogier wasted no time in showcasing his prowess. He clinched the first stage win of the day, extending his advantage by an impressive nine-tenths of a second. But Evans was not ready to back down; he clawed back 1.3 seconds on the next stage. However, the rally leader responded fiercely, dominating the penultimate stage and stretching his lead to a commanding 10.3 seconds. As if to seal his dominance, Ogier also claimed victory in the Wolf Power stage, racking up a remarkable 35 points and grabbing the coveted Super Sunday bonus.

This victory is monumental for Toyota, as it marks their 103rd win in WRC history, surpassing Citroen’s previous record and establishing them as the most successful manufacturer in the sport. Despite having missed three rounds earlier this season, Ogier’s remarkable comeback is nothing short of a rallying fairy tale, proving that the eight-time champion is still a force to be reckoned with.

Meanwhile, Hyundai’s Adrien Fourmaux and Alex Coria delivered a strong performance, securing the third podium of the season after leading the rally on Friday. Thierry Neuville and Martijn Wydaeghe, however, finished in fourth place, narrowly missing out on the Wolf Power Stage victory by a mere four-tenths of a second after a weekend that saw them struggle for pace.

In a season highlight, Sami Pajari and Marko Salminen shone brightly, finishing fifth and achieving their first stage win outside their home country, while Kalle Rovanpera faced a disappointing outing after an early mistake cost him dearly. Takamoto Katsuta and Aaron Johnston finished seventh, leading the way for their GR Yaris, followed closely by Gregoire Munster and Louis Louka, who were the top-performing M-Sport Ford drivers.

Ott Tanak had high hopes for a resounding Super Sunday but was left disappointed after reporting overheating issues that hampered his engine performance, leaving him with just a single point from the weekend.

In a remarkable achievement, Oliver Solberg and co-driver Elliot Edmondson clinched the FIA WRC2 Championship title with an impeccable performance throughout the three-day event, aside from a minor spin in the opening stage. Nikolay Gryazin and Konstantin Aleksandrov finished as runners-up in WRC2 with their Skoda Fabia RS, while Jan Solans and Rodrigo Sanjuan rounded out the podium in their Toyota GR Yaris Rally2.

As the dust settles on a thrilling Rally Chile, Ogier’s relentless drive and Solberg’s stellar championship win remind us all why we are captivated by the world of rally racing. Don’t miss out on the excitement as the WRC season unfolds—this is just the beginning!
