WRC: Latvala/Anttila claim historic WRC victory in France
Finnish party in Alsace – Jari-Matti Latvala and Miikka Anttila won the Rally France and made history in the process.
The Volkswagen duo is the first Finnish pairing for just short of 15 years to win an all-asphalt round of the FIA World Rally Championship (WRC).
With their fourth win of the season, the twelfth of their career and the fifth in a Polo R WRC, Latvala/Anttila kept the race for the title in the Drivers’ and Co-Drivers’ Championship well and truly alive.
Andreas Mikkelsen/Ola Fløene (N/N) finished runner-up to complete the historic result and present Volkswagen with its seventh one-two of the season.
Fans must remain patient to discover which Volkswagen duo will eventually secure the Drivers’ and Co-Drivers’ title in the World Championship: Sébastien Ogier/Julien Ingrassia (F/F) ended their home leg of the World Rally Championship in 13th place, but did win the Power Stage to pick up three valuable bonus points.
