How a WRC legend first took centre stage 30 years ago
The 1993 World Rally Championship season was a year of firsts, including the rise of Toyota’s Juha Kankkunen as the first four-time world champion. Colin McRae, a two-time British rally champion, also made his debut on the world stage as part of the Prodrive Subaru team. McRae’s first victory came in New Zealand, where he defeated top drivers such as Delecour, Auriol, Sainz, and Kankkunen. It was Subaru’s first WRC win and the first British WRC success in over a decade. McRae’s win marked the beginning of a successful collaboration between him and Subaru, resulting in 16 WRC wins and a world title in 1995.
