Akio Toyoda comment for Acropolis Rally Greece

2026-06-29T06:04:16+00:00

I am looking forward to seeing more of you in the second half of the season. One of my favourite memories from Rally Japan was Seb coming over to talk with me. Looking at this result, I'd be very happy if our conversation in that moment played even a small part in helping him achieve it. I'm looking forward to seeing what you can do in the second half of the s...

2026-06-28T21:23:03+00:00

The legendary event lived up to its reputation this year with temperatures exceeding 30 degrees centigrade combining with extremely rough and rocky roads to test tyres, cars and drivers alike. TGR-WRT faced a particularly challenging start to the rally with its five drivers starting in the first five places courtesy of their strong championship positions and therefore sweeping a line through the loose gravel for their rivals to follow. Nine-time world champion Ogier had the best start positio...

The initial loop of four stages was the longest to be driven on a single set of tyres during this event, at 74.08 competitive kilometres, with two stages to then be repeated in rougher second-pass conditions after a mid-afternoon service halt. Ogier began the day second overall, 9.7s behind the leader Thierry Neuville...

2026-06-25T20:43:25+00:00

Ogier went quickest through the first stage to claim the early rally lead by one second over team-mate...
