If you’ve been using WRC All Live to keep an eye on the season finale in Australia, you’ve no doubt caught some of the banter between Craig Breen and stage-end reporter Colin Clark. It actually goes back to a few weeks ago during Rally Catalunya. On that occasion, Craig called out Colin for “having a...
Before we talk about this week’s news, I want to flash back to Portugal 2014. Kris Meeke had just thrown his Citroen DS3 off the road on SS7. Almost before the car had ground to a halt, he turned to Paul Nagle, his co-driver, and voiced aloud the very first thing that came to his...

As we bring 2017 to a close, I decided to sit down and have a good think about the season that has just passed us by. In many ways, it was a classic season that will go down in the history books. I will certainly remember it for the rest of my life. But what...
In one sense, it’s almost incredible that it took until 2017. Twenty years after M-Sport assumed the responsibility of Ford’s WRC efforts, Malcolm Wilson finally got the driver’s title he’d been chasing for so long.
