Monza, Sunday 21 November 2021 - Sebastien Ogier and Julien Ingrassia won the FORUM8 ACI Rally Monza, also taking home the FIA World Rally Championship and giving Toyota, brought to the race by Gazoo Racing WRT, the constructors' title. For the very French champion this is the eighth victory in the World Cup in a sporting life extraordinarily rich in successes and which, at the age of 37, still seems to be on the rise.Bravo him, good teammate Elfyn Evans, paired with Scott Martin always in a Toyota Yaris WRC, the only one who could still disturb Ogier in the title race at the start of the race. For the Briton a generous race, which saw him in the lead at times, but also the acknowledgment again of the superiority of the transalpine who here, like last year, in the end preceded him in the race. Toyota therefore at the top and Hyundai to chase here in the race, as in almost the entire championship, and perhaps to reflect on a season that has once again demonstrated the absolute qualities of the Hyundai i20 Coupé WRC, but which was also characterized by unfortunate episodes for Hyundai Shell Mobis WRT. The third, fourth and fifth places at Monza obtained by Dani Sordo paired with Candido Carrera, Thierry Neuville, together with Martijn Wydaeghe, and by Oliver Solberg, navigated by Elliot Edmondson, can only improve the balance of a race that has however seen the cars Koreans always stay away from their opponents.
The two Toyotas stretch the lead with the Frenchman overtaking Evans. The gap for Hyundai increases with Sordo 3rd followed by Neuville slowed by a contact. Rossel 10th is leader in WRC 3 and Mikkelsen duels against Huttunen in WRC 2. Crugnola, eleventh, first of the Italians.Monza, Friday 20 November 2021 - Second day of competition for the best drivers of the World competing in the FORUM8 ACI Rally Monza, the last round of the FIA WRC. Four tests to face in the first half of the stage always in the Bergamo area and among these also the two challenging laps on the longest time trial of the Rally, that of Selvino of almost twenty-five kilometers. Timed sections that were called upon to confirm or not the technical values expressed by yesterday's first stage. Values that have been largely confirmed with a ranking that sees the two Toyota of Ogier and Evans who are currently even more widely in the lead with a clear advantage over the two Hyundai of Sordo and Neuville, the latter relegated to fourth position due to a touched during the second test today. The only real novelty was the confirmation of the great class but also of the great determination of Sebastien Ogier who in the last of the four tests just disputed returned to the command of the race making it clear to his teammate, Elfyn Evans, that he will not be satisfied with placing himself behind him to win the drivers' championship, but will also try to win the race. When at the end of today's stage there are only two special stages, mostly taken from sections of the Autodromo Nazionale Monza, the situation sees the multiple world champion in command who now has a 5 " 2 advantage over Evans. The two Hyundai are still far away, those of the Spaniard Dani Sordo, third at 33 " 4 and that of Neuville which also due to the morning touch is now at 51 " 9.
The two, also fighting for the title of World Rally Champion, confirmed the current superiority of the Yaris WRC over the Hyundai i20 Coupé WRC, the cars competing for the Constructors' title.Two Toyota in front and two Hyundai to chase with an already important gap. The first of the three days of the FORUM8 ACI Rally Monza, the closing race of the World Rally Championship, decisive for the assignment of the drivers 'and constructors' titles, ended with the two Toyota Yaris WRC of Elfyn Eevans, sailed by Scott Martin, and Sebastien Ogier, paired with Julien Ingrassia, clearly in command. The pace of the two, who have been fighting each other for a long time on the edge of tenths of a second, was decidedly higher than that of the competition with, in particular, the two Hyundai of Thierry Neuville and Dani Sordo that were consistently less fast of the adversaries, in particular on the two special stages, to be repeated twice, outside the circuit, those of "Gerosa" (10.96 km) and "Costa Valle Imagna" (22.11 km). Timed sections that allowed the Toyota drivers to take a good advantage. The race is still long, but the more than twenty seconds ahead of the crews in the lead over Neuville, and the over thirty over Dani Sordo, are particularly heavy.
