New Hyundai i20 R5 Rally2 On Sale in 2021

Hyundai Motorsport Customer Racing has unveiled the i20 N Rally2, an all-new rally car intended for privateer teams and drivers.

Rally Portugal Preview

French duo back in action at opening gravel fixture Rallying superstars Sébastiens Loeb and Ogier face-off for the second course of their FIA World Rally Championship season rivalry at Vodafone Rally de Portugal (19 - 22 May). The sport’s two most successful drivers are reunited in battle after serving up a tasty dish at January’s season-opening Rallye Monte-Carlo. Loeb became the oldest event winner in history at 47 after snatching victory in an epic tussle. Three rounds further down the road, they return from competing in other disciplines to add extra spice to the opening gravel fixture of both the season and the WRC’s hybrid era. Loeb has the harder task. The nine-time champion is an early starter in Friday’s opening leg and with conditions set to remain dry, grip will be low for those at the front on roads coated in slippery sand. “I am fourth on the road and road cleaning is always a challenge in this kind of rally if it’s dry,” said the M-Sport Ford Puma driver. “I don’t reall

Safari Rally Kenya Preview

WRC legends clash at toughest rally of the year Pride of the plains Sébastien Ogier defends his Safari Rally Kenya (23 - 26 June) crown against old foe Sébastien Loeb as they battle for the first time on Africa’s unforgiving terrain. The FIA World Rally Championship legends face off for the third time this year at the sixth and toughest round of the series in the picture-postcard Great Rift Valley. The route teems with exotic wildlife including lions, leopards, giraffes, zebras and hippos. Both drivers are contesting partial programmes this season. Nine-time champion Loeb drew first blood when the 47-year-old became the oldest WRC event winner in history at Rallye Monte-Carlo in his M-Sport Ford Puma Rally1. Toyota Gazoo Racing’s Ogier, eight times a title winner, claimed the Safari crown in 2021 when the sub-Saharan classic returned to the series following a 19-year absence. This will be their first Kenyan clash, with Loeb’s only previous start way back in 2002. Long straight roads

Rally Sweden Preview

Ice and snow lie in wait as WRC hybrid era continues in Umeå. Remote and frozen forests in northern Sweden will provide an intimidating challenge as the FIA World Rally Championship enters uncharted territory this week for the second chapter of its exciting new hybrid era. Never before has Rally Sweden (February 24 - 27) journeyed so close to the Arctic Circle. With temperatures plunging to a bone-chilling -20°C in the host city of Umeå this week, the speed tests in the Västerbotten region will test competitors to the full. After a year’s absence due to the pandemic, the new-look Rally Sweden offers perfect conditions for the WRC’s only pure winter fixture as ice and snow-covered roads weave through picture-postcard countryside. Winter rallying demands a unique approach. Drivers ‘lean’ their cars against snowbanks to guide them around corners, while studded tyres bite into the ice to provide remarkable grip and ensure that, paradoxically, this will be one of the year’s fastest encoun

Rally Croatia Day 2

Kalle Rovanperä’s commanding Croatia Rally lead came under threat from Ott Tänak during Saturday's absorbing second leg. FIA World Rally Championship leader Rovanperä began the second day of three in the hills near Zagreb with a seemingly impregnable lead of almost 90sec over the Estonian in his Toyota GR Yaris. He ended with that advantage slashed to just 19.9sec after a puncture and Tänak's persistence set up an exciting Sunday finale. Tänak had already trimmed Rovanperä’s lead when the Finn punctured his front left tyre on the morning's penultimate speed test amid heavy rain and thick fog at the Platak ski resort above the Adriatic coast. The pair were the only frontrunners who had the advantage of Pirelli's wet weather tyres on all four corners of their cars. While Tänak pushed on through the gloom to win the stage in his Hyundai i20 N, Rovanperä conceded nearly 55sec. Tänak sniffed the opportunity of a first victory for more than a year and nibbled back more time,
