Ready, Set, Go! WRC Central European Rally

Kalle Rovanperä

Toyota Gazoo Racing’s Kalle Rovanperä sits atop the WRC standings, aiming to win the 2023 WRC Drivers’ Championship in Central Europe for his second-career World Championship. Except for retiring from his home rally in Finland, Rovanperä has finished in the top four in every rally this season (ten of 11 rallies).

Rovanperä has five first-place power stage finishes in the previous seven rallies, with his Finland retirement and second-place in Kenya as the outliers.

Rovanperä is one of Toyota’s drivers who’ll finish in the top five and likely fighting for the win, having three rally wins and five top-three finishes in the last seven rallies.

Elfyn Evans

Rovanperä’s Toyota teammate and chief Championship rival Elfyn Evans needs two mega weekends and luck to take the Championship lead from his Finnish counterpart. Evans finished in the top five in the power stage in the previous six rallies, with four consecutive power stage top-two finishes.

Besides his retirement in Portugal, Evans has finished in the top five in ten of the 11 rallies this season, scoring two rally wins this season (Croatia and Finland), and has a streak of six consecutive top-four finishes heading into the Central European Rally.

Evans will join Rovanperä in the top five and likely on the rostrum with his fourth consecutive podium finish.

Sebastien Ogier

Toyota Gazoo’s Sebastian Ogier hasn’t entered every rally but has a 50% winning record this season. Ogier has three wins in six rallies, with five power stage top-five finishes.

However, Ogier finished 10th in Greece in his last rally but will likely bounce back and finish in the top five.

Thierry Neuville

Hyundai’s Thierry Neuville has eight top-five finishes this season, and having three second-place finishes in the previous four rallies, Neuville will finish in the top-five, but a rally win would be an upset.
