Ott Tanak tested with M-Sport Ford ahead of WRC Rally Mexico 2023

avatar

Hi, friends!

World Rally champion from 2019 Ott Tanak is leading a championship again after three frustrating years at Hyundai where he just couldn't have the same status as their number one dog Thierry Neuville.

He came back for this season at the semi-private team M-Sport Ford where he started his WRC career in the first place. He knows everyone in the team so that will just be a plus factor for him.

After shy start at Monte Carlo Rallye in January, he finally found a pace at the snow of Sweden and won there where no one expected from him to win in just 2nd event with the team.

OK, current WRC champion Kalle Rovanpera played some tactical games in Sweden because the championship leader opens the road in Mexico and there you have to clean the gravel road as the first car on the special stage which means massive lose of the time.

But Ott Tanak has lots of experience and I know that he will find the right pace to stay close to the top of the leader board.

He and his team mate Pierre-Louise Loubet tested recently on gravel to prepare as best as they can for the gravel of Mexico.

We have a video from Tanak's test. Please enjoy... :)
