The 2013 WRC was Sebastien Ogier’s and Volkswagen Motorsport’s too lose, Ogier had a clear run at the Driver Title with the retirement of Sebastien Loeb and no other driver been able to match him over a rally distance and Volkswagen, even so it was there first season they came in as favourite with the best driver line-up and WRC Car for a real hammer blow year to every other team. Citroen were lost with out Loeb which is understandable given the legacy he had with the team. M-sport (Ford) were always going to struggle now they are a privateer with out the same money as the bigger teams. Next year is shaping up to be a decent year in WRC with the return of Hyundai and no real development’s been made car wise to keep hopefully a level playing field. Check out the review video above and the final results below.
