› Russians #nikolaygryazin and co-driver Konstantin Aleksandrov (ŠKODA FABIA Rally2 evo) score maximum points for Movisport to win the WRC2 Teams’ Championship*
› WRC2 Drivers’ Champion* Andreas Mikkelsen (NOR) of ŠKODA Motorsport supported Team Toksport WRT finishes off 2021 season with more stage wins

Monza (ITA), 21 November 2021 – The FIA #rally World Championship came to a close with the ACI #rallymonza (19-21 November 2021). With roughly half of the stage distance competed on and around the famous Formula One track, ŠKODA drivers #nikolaygryazin from Russia and Enrico Brazzoli from Italy collected enough points for Movisport to win the WRC2 Teams’ Championship* by one single point. Kajetan Kajetanowicz (ŠKODA FABIA Rally2 evo) from Poland came second overall in the WRC3 Drivers’ Championship*.
With the drivers’ title already secured by Andreas Mikkelsen*, the focus in category WRC2 was on the duel for the still open teams’ championship. ŠKODA Motorsport supported team Toksport WRT had entered Norwegian Mikkelsen with new co-driver Phil Hall (GBR) and Marco Bulacia/Marcelo der Ohannesian (BOL/ARG). Competitor Movisport counted on Russians Nikolay Gryazin/ Konstantin Aleksandrov and local heroes Enrico Brazzoli/Manuel Fenoli. Car of choice for all four crews: the ŠKODA FABIA Rally2 evo.
From the word go, the fight for category lead was on between Mikkelsen and Gryazin. As it turned out, luck was only on the Russian’s side. While Mikkelsen lost a full two minutes while changing a punctured tyre in stage 6, Gryazin came away with only a 45 seconds time loss after hitting a concrete block in the same test. With the two fastest drivers in trouble, Bulacia reached the first leg’s finish as WRC2 leader. But the next morning, it was the young Bolivian’s turn to destroy and eventually loose a wheel. That saw Gryazin relegated back to the category lead.
