Daniel Elena is the most successful WRC co-driver of all time

Daniel Elena

Daniel Elena and Sebastien Loeb are used to winning rallies but this one is even more significant. It gives co-driver Daniel Elena a record 25 wins in the FIA World Rally Championship, making him the most successful co-driver of all time.

Winning this rally allows Elena to overtake Luis Moya in the co-driver ratings. "I am very happy," said Elena. "I am sorry for Luis. I dedicate this win to my daughter, my family. It's very good day. I hope for many more victories to come."

If Loeb takes two more rally wins then he will join Elena's high and become the driver with the most WRC victories.
