Thierry Neuville and Martijn Wydaeghe have secured the first FIA World Rally Championship for Drivers’ and Co-drivers’ titles for Hyundai Motorsport at Rally Japan in a fitting finale to an exciting 2024 season.
For Neuville, his debut FIA WRC drivers’ title is the culmination of 11 seasons with Hyundai Motorsport. The Belgian has been instrumental in the team’s successes in FIA WRC, from the very first podium at Rally México and debut win at Rallye Deutschland in 2014, to the two manufacturers’ titles in 2019 and 2020.
Together, Hyundai Motorsport and Neuville have built a solid working relationship – one of the longest in the FIA WRC – that has seen him finish as vice-champion four times and claim 21 victories, 62 podiums and 380 stage wins.
