Overview
- Toyota locked out the podium with Oliver Solberg victorious ahead of Elfyn Evans by 51.8s and Sébastien Ogier by 1:10.4.
- Solberg earned his first victory as a Toyota works driver and his second WRC career win.
- Heavy snow, ice and a thaw created slush and mud that reshaped the rally, with one Friday stage shortened for safety and numerous incidents across the field.
- Solberg survived a near-off when he slid into a field, turned the car around on stage and still maintained his lead.
- M‑Sport Ford’s manufacturer‑points run at Monte‑Carlo ended after multiple retirements, while Hyundai drivers reported limited confidence in their tyre package and Ogier criticized Hankook’s winter tyres.
