Elfyn Evans saw off Ott Tanak to claim his first WRC win in 18 months 🏆 Full CroatiaRally report ⬇️
Toyota’s Elfyn Evans claimed a first World Rally Championship victory in 18 months after seeing off M-Sport-Ford’s Ott Tanak to take a comfortable win in Croatia.Evans and co-driver Scott Martin delivered a faultless drive to score a first win since Rally Finland in October 2021 by a margin of 27.0 seconds from Tanak on Croatia’s challenging asphalt stages.
Evans inherited a 19.1s rally lead on Saturday morning when Neuville crashed out in stage 11. The Belgian damaged his i20 N’s left rear suspension following contact with a piece of concrete having misjudged a third gear right-hander. Equipped with a 25.4s lead, Evans produced a measured drive in Sunday’s final four stages to take an emotional victory.Photo by: Red Bull Content Pool
World champion Kalle Rovanpera finished fourth behind Evans after winning an entertaining duel with his eight-time world champion team-mate Sebastien Ogier, who had the advantage of opening the roads on Friday. Toyota’s nominated only Rovanpera and Ogier to score manufacturers points instead of the permitted three drivers, in move of solidarity with Hyundai following Breen’s passing.
