Reference: The World Rally Championship (WRC) is a rallying series organised by the FIA, culminating with a champion driver and manufacturer. The driver’s championship and manufacturer’s championship are separate championships, but based on the same point system. This means, for example, that Petter Solberg driving for Subaru can win the driver’s championship but Citroen can win the manufacturer’s championship, which is what happened in 2003, and twice more in 2006 and 2007 when Sebastien Loeb took his third and fourth WRC titles but Ford won the manufacturer’s championship. The competition first received the designation of WRC in 1973. The sport’s commercial rights are administered by International Sportsworld Communicators.
