Elfyn Evans secured a lights-to-flag victory on Sunday at FORUM8 Rally Japan as his Toyota Gazoo Racing team locked out the top three positions on home soil.
Welsh driver Evans clinched his eighth career win by finishing a dominant 1min ahead of team-mate Sébastien Ogier at this final round of the season, confirming his place as the runner-up driver in the 2023 FIA World Rally Championship for the third time.
Evans laid the foundations for glory early in the asphalt fixture when he charged to a near-two-minute advantage in Friday’s rain-soaked opening leg. From then on, he was able to control the rally by adapting his risk level to suit the ever-changing conditions.
Kalle Rovanperä’s capture of the final podium spot capped off a perfect season for Toyota, which has heralded titles for Rovanperä and co-driver Jonne Halttunen, as well as a third successive manufacturers’ championship victory.
Overall classification:
1. E Evans / S Martin GBR Toyota GR Yaris 3h 32m
2. S Ogier / V Landais FRA Toyota GR Yaris 1m
3. K Rovanperä / J Halttunen FIN Toyota GR Yaris 1m
4. E Lappi / J Ferm FIN Hyundai i20 N 2m
5. T Katsuta / A Johnston JPN Toyota GR Yaris 3m
6. O Tänak / M Järveoja EST Ford Puma 3m
