It is. However the Peugeot contract was 2 years. He was coming back to Subaru for 2004, he even had the team clothing kit sent to him, but as we all know that didnt happen and they filled his seat with Mikko Hirvonen :(
It’s tragic that Burns never got to see how his 5 year plan unfolded. Taken far too soon. McRae had already started to lose interest in the WRC by about 2004 and probably wouldn’t have made a full comeback even if he hadn’t died. But Burns had more to show and offer. Both our top line WRC drivers taken in less than two years. Such a wicked loss. 😞
@Ionouts : Someone else here that by saying "who won" is such a spoiler. I don't think it should be the case -- just go watch the entire video and see HOW Puras did it!!! Thank you, WRC!!! I just want you to know that I also watch the advertisements in full so you can continue loading more of these types of videos on TH-cam!!! Keep it coming!!! I'll be one of those who support it!!!
Puras was the hardes't rally fighter, so many problems in his sport live, teams like Citroën hurt them after all the work of Puras. Hearth and historic victory for he and all Cantabrian pepople! PURAS Nº1
Just like he could have lost the 1998 championship when the celica had a turbo go out or was it 1997. But that's life, could of,would,of should of, at the end of the day you need to put yourself in those situations
Odd time for rallying. Cars were nether spectacular or fast, but they were generally reliable but super complex. Great time for the super 1600's though. Those little Punto's looked cheeky
For me it was one of WRC golden era aside from Group B. Late 90's and early 2000's had pretty good title fights, a lot of manufacturers entries, and both iconic cars & drivers
It was on the Acropolis Rally Burns who was only running a half season schedule that season was running 3rd behind the 2 Ford's of Kankunnen and Sainz. But he deliberately took time penalties after the final service area which allowed Makinen to take 3rd and the extra point that came with it proved crucial in the run in
He could afford to drive WRC in San Remo since no one could pass him in the JWRC standings in that single rally even if he was absent, he had to go back to maintain his championship lead.
This is by far the most appalling Corsica Rallye documentary ever made. Histerical image sequences than makes you feel dizzy. Theres no way you like this stupid childish document with dumb music. I've been watching even the most basic amateur recordings in 80s and 90s and you can literally breathe the atmosphere of this magnificent rally. This is the anti-rally document and is also connected with the wrc cars most ugly period.

Hearing Richard Burns say "I'm only 30." and signing a 5 year contract, is so sad.

Mid 2000's truly were the end of WRC golden era
Happy for Puras. You can see the emotion after his finds out he's won. Many years of trying all coming out in one moment.
He won because Peugeot would get maximum manufacturer points even if Purras' phony ass was first. If it wasn't for that Panizzi would have smoked him.

Waiting 2021 WRC season by rewatching these 2001 full highlights.
Another tarmac master class from Puras.
puras le meilleur pilote sur l'asphalte dans le monde!!
13:01 Makinen very happy with the new Lancer hahaha
You can tell he was fed up with the thing already. No wonder he moved to Subaru for 2002.
Old WRC is better than current.

19:16 - Scarying crash
10:02 Bugalski never won twice in Corsica, it was in Cataluña and Corsica 99
I imagine he also won at the frech rally champioship that's why he says that but i don't know
@@sergiofernandezrodriguez4820 He never meant that

48:48 so that's why Colin lost the title in 97, just listen.

Puras Number one
An emotional win
>number 1
>1 wrc win in his whole career
Choose one
Puras is a phony, never amounted to nothing neither could he because he was a cheater
When Colin McRae crashes you know its legit hes trying hard. What a Legend 👏🏻
Did he also push his helicopter hard?
La peor temporada para Marcus, creo...pero al año siguiente se repuso!
20:55
Risto spinning around in the air on a stretcher is just so funny
La escusa de Sainz cuando ganó puras .claro claro así cualquiera trampa tramposa
Where was loeb?
Still in JWRC, he only ran San Remo in WRC competition that year.

Always hurts to see Purras, A man whom everyone knows cheated earlier that year in Catalunya, win a rally. Once a cheater, always a cheater.
when did he cheated i think he retired on that rally
@@sergiofernandezrodriguez4820 that's correct. Karma striked on day 2 but in Corsica he didn't cheated.
@@sergiofernandezrodriguez4820 that doesn't undo the fact that he cheated lol
@@strahinjastevic7480 but what happened? Why did he cheated?
