Sébastien Ogier, who is the most recent member to join Richard Mille’s family of partners, claims his fourth victory at Monte Carlo.
Ogier and his co-pilot Julien Ingrassia led the pack in their VW Polo R for the duration of the race, crossing the finish line just under 2 minutes ahead of runner-up Andreas Mikkelsen, from Norway (also a Volkswagen driver) and the Belgian Thierry Neuville (Hyundai).
“This rally is the most important of the season, to my mind,” rejoiced the triple world champion. “It’s deeply moving to have won here three times in a row, and something I’ve dreamt of since I was a little boy. To prevail in such a tough race three years running is fantastic—and definitely due to the extraordinary collective efforts of the whole team.”
Sébastien Ogier and Julien Ingrassia will next head to Karlstad to participate in the Swedish Rally on 11–14 February.
