Honda Rally Car

For the first time ever, the FIA World Rally Championship has a Honda car registered as a championship contender! Nominated by the organisers as the official "Guest" driver in the Junior World Rally Championship category on the Neste Oil Rally Finland, Matti Rantanen will be at the wheel of a Honda Type R. Rantanen won the 2-litre Group N class on the 2005 event, and has twice won this class in 2006 national championship events.
Although frequently seen in the hands of privateers, Hondas have not been involved either directly or indirectly as official registered championship competitors before.
