Drive the Polo R WRC as VW Rally the World

Volkswagen have already made the most of their entry in to the World Rally Championships this year with the Polo R WRC – apart from the fact it’s created a 4WD platform for the Polo/A1 in the process – with a street version of the Polo R WRC (although not in the UK). But VW’s adventure in to WRC with the Polo R hasn’t just been about a bit of product development and a spun-off road version – they’ve taken it very seriously.

So seriously have VW taken WRC – and so well prepared were they – that Sebastian Ogier has already taken the 2013 drivers gong in WRC (from the previous – long term – incumbent Sebastian Loeb) with three races left, in his 315bhp, 4WD Polo R, and VW look set to take the team title too.

Sadly, only a privileged few will ever get behind the wheel of a WRC Polo R, and fewer still will actually get to race it in anger, but you can get close thanks to VW’s appetite to draw motorsport enthusiasts in to the world of VW WRC.

VW has set up a Rally the World website where you can sign up and drive the Polo WRC online, or download an App for Android or IOS. There’s also lots of information on VW’s WRC odyssey, WRC action to watch on video, latest WRC news and much, much more.

A great time waster – but worth it.
