Toyota’s third WRC27 prototype, recently spotted testing on Catalan tarmac, features some interesting aero developments worth to review. We take a closer look at them in our latest article: wrcwings.tech/2026/10/06/toy…

Big congrats to @ElfynEvans & @scottmartinat for a long time deserved WRC title. Full tespect to a pair of gentlemen that were able to be fast in all surfaces, in spite of driving first on Fridays in all the gravel season #WRClive #WRCliveES #WRCjp
Added extra protection to the rear fenders of the Hyundai i20 N Rally1 squad for the rough stages of #RallyItaliaSardegna starting tomorrow to improve reliability and rear grip #WRClive #WRCliveES #WRCjp
With 2 WRC27 cars already testing, it is time to learn more about the 3rd initiative: RMC Motorsport. Key details were recently revealed in an interview with Roberto Méndez, that we have summarised in our latest article: wrcwings.tech/2026/09/28/fir…

It’s now 10 years since we all discovered the latest prototype of the 2017 VW Polo WRC, so we thought we had to celebrate it with a review of the car’s development during the 2015–16 testing season, in our latest article here: wrcwings.tech/2026/09/24/vw-…

Lancia tested the use of a snorkel on the Ypsilon Rally2 HF Integrale yesterday.... in preparation for a future entry in the @wrcsafarirally? Or for any other event with deep water crossings or risk of heavy rain

First-hand information about the Project Rally One car, as well as an informed opinion on the WRC27 regulations, from a long career rally engineer, J.C. Vaucard (ex-Peugeot, ex-Citroën), now involved in the 1st tuner car's development. Great interview!

On a voulu en savoir plus sur cette "Rally One" belge. Interview avec Jean-Claude Vaucard, conseiller technique de cette équipe et véritable légende du sport auto français #WRC

The loss of a front splitter in a Ford Puma #Rally1 at #RallyChileBiobío, compared to the other car at the same position & acceleration, results in a higher ride height & less front grip due to excess air entering under the car and lower front pressure #WRClive #WRCliveES #WRCjp
The absence of snorkel in the Hyundais might also be helping @AdrienFourmaux & @AlexandreCoria to set the fastest times today, added to their hypermotivation & ability, as no snorkel means less drag & a more efficient rear wing #WRClive #WRCliveES #WRCjp #uenoRallydelParaguay
The moment when @samipajari & @SalminenMarko lost the wing at the SS11 of #uenoRallydelParaguay. They will have to deal with SS12 without it, thus with less rear grip and an unbalanced car #WRClive #WRCliveES #WRCjp
The Ford Puma #Rally1 of @JonArmstrong84 & Shane Byrne already prepared for installing the snorkel in case of heavy rain during the #uenoRallyDelParaguay #WRClive #WRCliveES #WRCjp
The higher temperatures during today's afternoon stages of #uenoRallyDelParaguay allowed Toyota to remove one of the blocking plates in the front intake to allow more air to enter for engine cooling, after using 2 plates in the morning (left side) #WRClive #WRCliveES #WRCjp
Great shots from the second unit of the unborn 2021 Toyota GR Yaris WRC... thanks! No changes observed at the rear, with respect to the first unit we reviewed here: wrcwings.tech/2022/09/19/aer… #WRClive #WRCliveES #WRCjp
A unit of the unborn 2021 Toyota Yaris WRC with an alternative aero design of the front fenders -added winglet- can be visited at the Sportscar Museum at Akitakata, Hiroshima Pref. in a car designed to reveal the vehicle’s inner engineering structure #WRClive #WRCliveES #WRCjp
The Subaru Impreza S12 WRC’06 revived one of rallying’s most iconic aero devices of the 70s & 80s: the roof vane. Here’s our review of how it worked and how the car performed in our latest article:
