As Rally Greece kicks off, Ott Tänak leads the charge, closely followed by Toyota’s Takamoto Katsuta, marking a pivotal race for both Hyundai and Toyota in the manufacturer’s title race. Tänak, recovering from a major accident, is determined to keep his title hopes alive, while team strategies are focused on keeping Thierry Neuville in the lead. Meanwhile, Toyota’s Sébastien Ogier faces frustration as his 47-point gap from Neuville looms large, but his drive for victory remains.
Dust clouds filled the air, with drivers reporting visibility challenges as they sped across rough terrain. Tires and strategy are key here, with the unforgiving roads threatening punctures. Hyundai’s Dani Sordo plays a strategic role in ensuring their manufacturer title pursuit remains strong. Toyota’s Elfyn Evans, starting 10th, and Ogier, in 6th, could be holding back for a late push, but only time will tell.
This rally is not just a race; it’s a game-changer for the season. Greece, the land of ancient legends, may very well decide the fate of the 2024 WRC championship!
