.KalleRovanpera may have stormed to an historic OfficialWRC title last year. But the opposition he faces is fierce - something he is all too aware of as the 2023 season looms. Feature:
It seems that Kalle Rovanpera has barely been afforded an opportunity for his record-breaking 2022 World Rally Championship title to sink in before thoughts switch to trying for a second in 2023.

A wild silly season triggered by Ott Tanak’s departure from Hyundai to M-Sport has resulted in Toyota, Hyundai and M-Sport reshuffling their driver line-ups. Now that the music has stopped, the WRC could be set for one of its most tantalising title battles, with all three teams boasting world champions or rally winners.
