Hybrid drive has conquered the world of Formula One and dominated Le Mans endurance racing for almost a decade. Now, it"s getting muddy. Gritty. Icy. Yep, from 2022, the FIA has announced that the World Rally Championship will be contested by petrol-electric hybrid cars. Everyone will share a common hybrid unit, "comprised of common components and software for the first three years, with the potential for more technical freedom in 2024." That gives every team chance to get their head around volts and kilowatts, before kicking off the race to extract more speed from it.
