Who were the WRC champions in the years immediately before and after Colin’s championship win?

  • Juha Kankkunen and Tommi Mäkinen

  • Carlos Sainz and Richard Burns

  • Tommi Mäkinen and Marcus Grönholm

  • Didier Auriol and Juha Kankkunen

Answer

Sure! It goes like this: Colin McRae clinched the World Rally Championship title in 1995, breaking the streak of Finnish dominance in the series. The WRC champion of the previous year (1994) was the evergreen Juha Kankkunen, while Tommi Mäkinen would reclaim the title for Finland the following year, in 1996.
