Despite predictions of a Loeb/Peterhansel or a Al-Attiyah/de Villiers battle for the win, it was Peugeot's dark horse, former double WRC champ Carlos Sainz who crept up quietly on the whole field.

In just under a week, two of the year's major stories will be over and we should have an idea of the pecking order in both the World Rally Championship and the IMSA WeatherTech Sportscar Championship for 2018. Yes, by this time next week we will know the winners of both the Rolex 24 at Daytona and the 68th running of the Rallye Monte Carlo.
Daniel Lloyd has the preview on the year's first major sportscar race plus for the first time, we profile the major runners in a new section, the 'Ones to Watch' in where he profiles the drivers, their cars and what chance they may have come Sunday afternoon. Jerry Williams has the full story on how Monte preparations are going for the field plus he also has our first WRC Team News of the year too.
