2004 was amazing year Petter Solberg protect his title Sebastien Loeb 2nd full charge for title The new 307 for Peugeot...too bad it had some gearbox problem later on Mitsubishi's return as well
Only in theory. In reality it wasn't amazing at all. 2004 was the beginning of the french domination of the sport. Loeb won that season with a big advantage over Solberg, Peugeot's new car wasn't a solid project, and the Lancer had many flaws despite Mitsubishi testing the car for over a year...
First world champion for Sebastian Loeb in 2004... Sebastian Loeb Monte Carlo 7 times winner ie 2003 to 2005, 2007 to 2008 and 2012 to 2013 except 2006 Monte Carlo Day 1 Ditch Fall trap that almost dropped to 2nd when Marcus Gronholm won the 2006 Monte Carlo for the first time in first Ford Focus team
5:14 - “It [Stage 1] was cancelled for safety reasons due to the sheer number of supporters on the stage.” By ‘safety reasons’, they probably mean the high risk of a car crashing into the crowd if it lost control and spectators possibly being killed, that came from there being too many spectators.
@tiagob0592 you 2004 monte carlo rally, i am happy for and ima let you finish, but 1999 british rally was one of best rally of all time. OF ALL TIME!!!

It's great that you put this in a ten years old video, good job. I've been watching all the old seasons since March quarantine, beautiful
Ok but why is the audio mix so terrible on EVERY single one of these? It's just loud techno music over all the stuff I actually want to hear

The coolest intro I've ever seen.
R.I.P. THE SOUNDMIXER
Fantastic - thank you so much for these videos WRC - can we go back even further than 2001?
The beginning of the French (WRC) revolution, perpetuated by the 2 Sebastiens.
With ONLY Ott Tanak able to penetrate through the French (WRC) wall.
This is the first appearance for Peugeots new car the 307 and for Mitsubishi
2004 was amazing year
Petter Solberg protect his title
Sebastien Loeb 2nd full charge for title
The new 307 for Peugeot...too bad it had some gearbox problem later on
Mitsubishi's return as well
Yes.

For more information of this season play WRC 4 from PS2😉😄✌🏻
Rest in peace Beef. @24:42
Whole two season, 2004 and 2005 without Richard Burns is sort of lonely time for the WRC...
Look Roman kresta is driving the private Hyundai but unfortunately Hyundai as I just mentioned earlier didn’t even return to the wrc until 2014
4 speed gearbox for a fasttest WRC car IS one of my classic things in a rally history and in World Rally Championship.
but the 206 3 door hatchback wrc is more agile the coupe cabriolet of 307 wrc
I was 12 when this happened, used to be on the TV over 2 or 3 days weekend. Awesome times. As a kid it was also free for me 🤣
I whatch is 2019. :) go to history
Bons tempos!!!
👍👍👍😊Best Season Ever.😊👍👍👍

Die crash van Miguel Campos op 20:20 vind ik zo grappig !!!!
You can hear martins co driver showing his frustration about the fog which he can’t see where he’s going
