Lesquin, 27 August 2020 – This year, players will again be able to enjoy a selection of legendary cars in WRC 9, the official video game of the FIA World Rally Championship.

The latest edition of the highly-successful game, which will be available on 3 September 2020, features a total of 15 classic cars that have all left their mark in history by winning the WRC’s drivers’ or manufacturers’ world titles at least once.
