Over the last 50 seasons, the World Rally Championship has helped cultivate an array of talent that have produced feats of brilliance, left onlookers stunned and become household names in the process.
The runner-up from the previous two WRC campaigns has endured a slow start to the championship’s hybrid era, while team-mate Kalle Rovanpera has quickly adapted to the new car, romping to a runaway championship lead.
The M-Sport driver began his first full-time season in the WRC this year on the front foot by scoring a third at January's Monte Carlo season opener behind the duelling part-time drivers Sebastien Loeb (M-Sport) and Sebastien Ogier (Toyota).
Gronholm is the most recent Finnish driver to win the WRC title, after claiming his second world crown in 2002 with the factory Peugeot operation.
Unreliability has already cost Verstappen lots of points in 2022 and it was perhaps inevitable that Leclerc would suffer his own bad luck at some stage during the championship fight.
World championship leader Kalle Rovanpera completed a hat-trick of wins for Toyota and extended his overall advantage with victory in the Rally of Portugal on Sunday.
Final de infarto en el Rally de Portugal. Kalle Rovanpera se ha jugado con Elfyn Evans el triunfo hasta el último metro, y Dani Sordo el tercer escalón del podio con Takamoto Katsuta de la misma manera. Al final el joven finlandés se ha anotado su tercer triunfo consecutivo y se escapa al frente del Mundial, y el español se embolsaba el ‘cajón’ número 52 de su ya dilatada carrera.
Triunfó en Suecia, triunfó en Croacia y ahora lleva camino de sumar su tercera victoria consecutiva en Portugal. Kalle Rovanpera sigue en racha y se ha colocado en cabeza de la cita lusa tras superar sin contemplaciones a su compañero Elfyn Evans. Dani Sordo por su parte cedía la tercera posición ante un incisivo Takamoto Katsuta, que completa el triplete de los Toyota a falta de la etapa final.
