    PRESSEINFORMATION +++ Rallye Monte Carlo: Wiegand/Christian mit Klassensieg und Platz acht gesamt +++ 19.01.2013 16:32 Monaco/Weiterstadt – „Wir haben es geschafft“, jubeln Sepp Wiegand und sein neuer Copilot Frank Christian nach dem vorzeitigen Ende der ‚Monte’. Wegen von Zuschauern verstopften Zufahrtswegen wurden die letzten zwei Prüfungen gestrichen. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt hatten sich die beiden ŠKODA Piloten bereits auf Gesamtrang acht nach vorn gekämpft, der Klassensieg war trotz Schnee und Regen ebenfalls längst in trockenen Tüchern. „So etwas habe ich noch nicht erlebt“, schildert ein überglücklicher und überhaupt nicht erschöpfter Sepp Wiegand. Bei der ersten Schlitterpartie über den Col de Turini hatte der ŠKODA Youngster im absolut zuverlässig laufenden Fabia S2000 bei dichtem Schneetreiben sogar ein vor ihm gestartetes WRC auf dem Plateau ein- und überholt. Bei der zweiten Überquerung drehte er – zur Freude der tausenden Fans – an gleicher Stelle ungewollt eine Pirouette. Das war es dann aber auch schon mit den Unartigkeiten des ansonsten äußerst diszipliniert agierenden Wiegand. Der 22-jährige Zwönitzer und sein 28-jähriger Copilot aus Oberhausen harmonierten bei ihrem ersten gemeinsamen Einsatz auf Anhieb hervorragend und absolvierten diese für sie komplett neue Rallye vom ersten bis zum letzten Meter clever und durchdacht. Wie souverän sie dabei den Klassensieg holten, zeigt der Abstand auf die Verfolger: In den drei Prüfungen des heutigen Tages konnten sie ihren Vorsprung auf das nächste WRC 2-Team ohne Risiko auf gut sechs

  • Factbook 2019 Wrc Factbook 2019 / Prograde Photo of the Year Wrc Factbook 2019 / Intro
    FACTBOOK 2019 WRC FACTBOOK 2019 / PROGRADE PHOTO OF THE YEAR WRC FACTBOOK 2019 / INTRO WRC FACTBOOK 2019 The 2018 WRC season will be remembered as the most exciting and dramatic in a generation. It is 15 years since a drivers’ title fight of similar magnitude and a compelling season-long battle involving three drivers was finally resolved on the last morning of the season in Australia. It was a similar story in the manufacturers’ championship. All four teams won rallies and three made the long journey Down Under still with an opportunity to claim the crown. Following a similarly enthralling and unpredictable 2017 cam- paign, when new-era World Rally Cars headlined a raft of major changes to the championship, it is clear our sport is in the midst of an unforgettable period in its history. Away from the close competition, the WRC has grown in stature. The year opened with a major launch at Birmingham’s Autosport International show and finished with a glamorous end of season gala in Sydney and with the cars showcased once more in front of Milan’s iconic cathedral in the Piazza del Duomo. Our pioneering WRC+ All Live channel revolutionised the way in which fans could enjoy the sport as it happened. Every special stage from each round was streamed live, featuring stunning onboard and helicopter footage. It was supplemented by expert analysis and reactions from across the service park – adding up to more than 325 hours of live coverage. Our traditional TV coverage thrived too. The WRC’s global audi- ence and the number of broadcast hours continue their positive trend of the last years.

    PRESSINFORMATION Marcus Thomasfolk Kontaktperson Informationschef 08 553 867 97 Telefon 070 35 896 57 Mobil [email protected] E-post 2013-03-07 Datum Ska Volkswagen upprepa Sverige-succén i Mexico? Efter årets första WRC-seger i Rally Sweden är det dags för Volkswagen att ta sig an det mexikanska VM-rallyt som startar idag. Med sträckor som går på 2700 meters höjd blir Rally Mexico säsongens högst belägna rally och en riktig utmaning för både förare och teknik. - Årets första tre rallyn är alltid lite speciella. Efter legendariska Monte och kalla Sverige ska vi nu hantera temperaturer på över 2000 meters höjd, säger Jost Capito, chef för Volkswagen Motorsport. - Rally Mexico är också årets första rally som går på grus. Det blir intressant att se hur konkurrenskraftig vår Polo R WRC är under de förhållandena. Förarna kommer att köra 394,9 kilometer fördelade på 23 specialsträckor. Den mest spektakulära inledningssträckan för säsongen väntar i kväll i Guanajuato. Platsen är en före detta silvergruva som är uppsatt på UNESCO:s världsarvslista. Volkswagen har fått en flygande start efter de två inledande WRC-tävlingarna. Sébastien Ogier, Frankrike, blev tvåa i Monte Carlo och segrade sedan i Rally Sweden. Det gör honom till total WRC-ledare, före landsmannen Sébastien Loeb, Citroën. - Jag var mycket nöjd med att vinna i Sverige. Vår teaminsats var fantastisk. Men det är gamla nyheter vid det här laget och nu är det dags för den första tävlingen på grus, här i Mexiko. För mig personligen är det lite speciellt att tävla just här. Det var här jag körde min första WRC-tävling, 2008, och jag vann mitt första race i Junior WRC-klassen.

  • Che Guevara Energy Drink Tour De Corse This Event Conjures
    The Loudon-clear guide to… Che Guevara Energy Drink Tour de Corse This event conjures so many evocative and emotional memories: a Bernard Darniche-driven Lancia Stratos, incredible French dominance, Petter Solberg’s unforgettable zero to hero fightback win in 2003 and, of course, Sébastien Loeb’s perfect rally to win every single stage two years later. The Tour de Corse is a special rally with a special place in the history of the World Rally Championship. And the good news is that this week’s event goes a long way to really recreating what the original events were all about; this week is a real tour of Corsica including mileage from top to bottom of this beautiful island. Granted, a round-island itinerary sets France’s round of the championship aside from its fellow WRC qualifiers, but it’s great to have a bit of variety, not to mention a huge challenge to the crews competing. And, for the first time, I’m delighted to say that includes me. I’m co-driving Mohamed Al Mutawaa in an Abu Dhabi Racing Citroën DS 3 R3T. We tested together for the first time in France last week and everything went well – it’s fair to say we’re both very excited about getting into those 10,000 corners. One thing everybody’s hoping for this week is good weather; you really had to feel for the organisers last year, with so much rain falling in the run-up to the rally.
