Les Pneus Michelin Pour Le Rallye Monte-Carlo 2012 MEDIA INFORMATION Ajaccio, September 30, 2015 FIA 2015 World Rally Championship (WRC) TOUR DE CORSE The new MICHELIN Pilot Sport H5 and S5 tyres are ready to tackle the toughest asphalt event of the season Having made their competitive debut in August at ADAC Rallye Deutschland, the new Michelin Pilot Sport H5 (hard) and S5 (soft) asphalt tyres will next take on the abrasive, narrow and sinuous roads of the 2015 Tour de Corse, Corsica (October 1-4). The Tour de Corse was one of the rounds on the inaugural FIA World Rally Championship (WRC) calendar back in 1973, but it disappeared from the schedule seven years ago in favour of Alsace – the backyard of nine-time world champion Sébastien Loeb. Now, however, it is ready to return – with a new route that will take competitors to virtually all four corners of the island. The city of Ajaccio will host both the ceremonial start on the Thursday, October 1, and the finish on Sunday, October 4, while crews will also stop off at Corte, Bastia, Porto-Vecchio and Propriano – either for a midday remote service or for an overnight halt. Just nine special stages are on the programme (compared with between 17 and 21 for the championship’s other events), but they are very long – often more than 40km – and the total competitive distance is comparable to that of other rallies: 332.73km out of a total of 983.80km, including road liaison sections. A demanding route for tyres The mountainous Corsican roads are frequently winding and narrow and bordered on one side by the mountain and on the other by awesome drop-offs. The majority of competitors have never tackled them before, meaning accurate pace notes from recce will be more important than ever. The asphalt can also be very abrasive, which will be a real test for the tyres. For Jacques Morelli, Manager of Michelin Motorsport’s World Rally Championship programme: “The new MICHELIN Pilot Sport H5 and S5 tyres, which made their debut at Rallye Deutschland in August, have already ably demonstrated their excellent performance – but the special stages of the Tour de Corse pose an extra challenge. Grip levels can vary significantly, even during the course of a two-stage loop. Drivers will need to strike a compromise with regard to car set-up, with lower suspension than usual. This means that the quality of the tyres – in a championship that is open to different suppliers – will play a decisive role.” In support of the tests conducted by their different partner teams, the Michelin Motorsport engineers in charge of the development of the Pilot Sport H5/S5 also travelled to Corsica in order to glean as much technological feedback as possible. “The Rallye de France-Tour de Corse will be very tricky and will require perfect pace notes. The abrasive terrain obviously needs to be taken into consideration, but it is the occasionally cambered nature of the roads that will truly put the tyres shoulders to the test, particularly given that many of the stages are very long. Fortunately, the technical evolutions that we have brought to the new MICHELIN Pilot Sport H5/S5 mean competitors will benefit from a tread surface that sits flatter on the road, which will minimise wear to the exterior of the tyre. We have similarly modified the rubber compound for higher overall performance. Even if this event promises to be a real challenge, we are entirely confident in the quality of our tyres,” explains Jacques Morelli.

Michelin staff in Corsica Michelin’s staff in Corsica will comprise 17 people: - 1 manager - 4 team advisers - 2 coordinators - 9 fitters - 1 press officer Tour de Corse facts and figures The Tour de Corse came into existence in 1956 and – unusually for the time – its first edition was won by the all-female crew of Gilberte Thirion and Nadège Ferrier in a Renault Dauphine that produced 50hp with a five-speed gearbox. For many years, the Tour de Corse was nicknamed the ‘Rally of 10,000 Corners’, in deference to its very long and undulating route. A staple fixture on the French Rally Championship calendar from 1967, six years later the event also joined the World Rally Championship (WRC), which had just been created. Sébastien Ogier and Julien Ingrassia – who clinched their second World Rally Championship crown at Rally Australia on September 13 – have never previously competed in Corsica in a World Rally Car. This weekend will also mark Volkswagen Motorsport’s debut on the island. Two drivers have pulled off the remarkable feat of winning every single stage of the Tour de Corse: Bernard Darniche (in 1970 behind the wheel of an Alpine A110 1600, in the French Rally Championship) and Sébastien Loeb (in 2005, in a Citroën Xsara WRC in the World Rally Championship).

    NEW Press Information Coburg, December 10th, 2010 NEW 2 The legend returns. The NEW STRATOS will be officially presented on 29./30.11.2010, at the Paul Ricard Circuit in Le Castellet. The legendary Lancia Stratos HF was without a doubt the most spectacular and successful rally car of the 70s. With its thrilling lines and uncompro- mising design tailored to rally use, the Stratos not only single-handedly rewrote the history of rallying, it won a permanent place in the hearts of its countless fans with its dramatic performance on the world’s asphalt and gravel tracks – a performance which included three successive world championship titles. For Michael Stoschek, a collector and driver of historic racing cars, as well as a successful entrepreneur in the automotive supply industry, the development and construction of a modern version of the Stratos represents the fulfillment of a long-held dream. Back in 2003, the dream had already begun to take on a concrete form; now, at last, it has become a reality: In November 2010, forty years after the Stratos’ presentation at the Turin Motor Show, the New Stratos will be publicly presented for the first time at the Paul Ricard Circuit. The legend returns. NEW 3 A retrospective. It all began in 1970, at the Turin exhibition stand of the automobile designer, Bertone. The extreme Stratos study on display there – a stylistic masterpiece by the designer Marcello Gandini – didn’t just excite visitors, but caught the attention of Cesare Fiorio, Lancia’s team manager at the time… and refused to let go.

Ogier/Ingrassia claim fourth WRC title in a row with Volkswagen § Crowned with a win: Ogier/Ingrassia wrap up world title after eleven rallies § Title defence sees champions join Kankkunen and Mäkinen in exclusive club § Match point number two for Volkswagen in the Manufacturers’ Championship Wolfsburg (16 October 2016). Sébastien Ogier/Julien Ingrassia (F/F) were crowned World Rally Champions for the fourth time in a row after taking victory at the Rally Spain. They guided their Volkswagen Polo R WRC to a fifth win of the season in Catalonia, finishing ahead of Dani Sordo/Marc Martí (E/E, Hyundai) und Thierry Neuville/Nicolas Gilsoul (B/B, Hyundai). Their ninth podium in eleven races triggered wild celebrations. The Frenchmen can no longer be caught at the top of the overall standings in the 2016 FIA World Rally Championship (WRC). Team-mates Andreas Mikkelsen/Anders Jæger (N/N) went into the Rally Spain as their closest rivals in the title race, but the Norwegians’ hopes of winning the championship were dashed when they were forced to retire from the rally. Eighth place in the Manufacturers’ classifications for Jari-Matti Latvala/Miikka Anttila (FIN/FIN) means Volkswagen is well- placed to claim its fourth Manufacturers’ title in a row next time out at the Rally Great Britain. Kankkunen, Mäkinen and Ogier – up there with the biggest names in rallying 952 days in a row at the top of the table: Sébastien Ogier is only the third World Rally Champion to be crowned champion four years in a row in the pinnacle of rallying, and the fourth four-time world champion in the history of the FIA World Rally Championship (WRC).

Although last month’s Rally Finland didn’t produce the ultimate result for our team, Hayden finished just outside the podium places after a strong drive. Thierry and Nicolas continue to lead the Drivers’ championship with an advantage of 21 points, while the Hyundai Shell Mobis World Rally Team heads the Manufacturers’ championship by 26 points so there’s plenty of reason to be positive. I must also congratulate our HMDP crew of Jari and Antti for recording their first WRC2 podium of the year with second in that class. Rallye Deutschland is the first tarmac event on the calendar since Tour de Corse in April. Since then we’ve worked on improving the suspension, especially the dampers, and centre differential mapping with two aims in mind: to achieve more grip for the Hyundai i20 Coupe WRC and find a better balance. This follows feedback from our drivers during Corsica where they reported being hampered by understeer. Our three drivers for Germany – Thierry, Dani and Andreas – have all sampled the changes during development testing and they also got the opportunity to finalise their set-ups during the recent pre-event test, which took place over five days so we could experience the vineyard roads and those within the Baumholder military range, which are very specific to this rally.

    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.
