Like most drivers, SĂ©bastien Ogier feels good in Argentina, where the population shows an overwhelming passion for rallying. After taking part in reconnaissance in 2008, he took the start of the Latin American WRC round for the first time.
Sébastien Loeb and Daniel Elena constitute the most successful duo in the history of the world rally championship with nine titles obtained between 2004 and 2012. They are ahead of another French tandem: Sébastien Ogier and Julien Ingrassia, for their part eight-time world champions . Third place on the podium is occupied by Tommi Mäkinen and Juha Kankkunen (4 titles).
Over the past six years, the Toyota Yaris WRC and the Hyundai i20 WRC have been the two cars that have competed for the Manufacturers' World Championship title. Since the start of the 2022 season, however, the M-Sport Ford Puma WRC has also won three victories thanks to Sébastien Loeb (2022) and Ott Tänak (2023).
In France, the Canal+ television channel holds the broadcast rights to the WRC. There is also, via the WRC+ subscription, the possibility of following all the special stages live on the WRC website.
