Elfyn ready for a desert shootout to win WRC title

TOYOTA drivers Elfyn Evans, Sébastien Ogier and Kalle Rovanperä will face off in a bid to be crowned world champion when the all-new Rally Saudia Arabia stages the final round of the 2025 FIA World Rally Championship.

Having already clinched a fifth consecutive manufacturers’ title, Toyota Gazoo Racing is now preparing for three of its crews to battle one last time to win the drivers’ and co-drivers’ crowns.

In pursuit of their first world titles, Dolgellau’s Evans and co-driver Scott Martin currently lead the standings after a consistent campaign in which they have finished every event inside the top six.

That has included two wins and six other podiums, with four successive second places in the last four events.

Just three points behind after winning a tight battle with Evans for victory on the previous event at Rally Japan, Ogier has a chance to achieve a record-equalling ninth world championship and a first for co-driver Vincent Landais.

Together they have been on the podium in nine of the 10 rounds they have started this year, winning six of them.
