Subaru into the unknown in Ireland… but it has a little asset

Unlike Ford and Citroën, the Subaru team did not travel to Ireland during the season to prepare for this first rally in the Land of the Shamrock. But the Blues rely on the experience gained from their clients.

The Ireland Championship has been hosting an impressive number of WRCs at each start for a few years now. Among these WRCs, the Subaru Impreza WRC has built up an impressive track record that the official team wants to rely on:

“We benefit from the knowledge gained from our clients who ride and win in Ireland,” explains Richard Taylor, head of the Banbury team.

« We know the challenge is significant because the roads are very different from those in other asphalt events. It will be a great moment for us because there have never been so many Impreza WRC at the start of a world event. I hope we can achieve a good result for our fans.

Twelve Subaru Impreza WRCs are expected at the start against fifteen Ford Focus WRCs. In total, 34 WRCs have been entered.
