Oliver Solberg wins the 94th Monte Carlo Rally

Despite a spin that nearly ended in a precipice, Swedish driver Oliver Solberg has added his name to the list of winners of the Monte Carlo Rally. Dominant for four days at the wheel of a Toyota Yaris Rally1, in only his second race in the top category, the young Swede, son of 2003 World Champion Petter Solberg, won the opening round of the WRC in Monaco this Sunday. He finished ahead of his teammates Elfyn Evans and Sébastien Ogier.

He held his nerve and went the distance! Already the clear winner of the 2025 Rally Estonia, his only race in a Toyota Yaris to date, Oliver Solberg has now entered a legendary event: the Monte Carlo Rally. Winner this Sunday, January 25, 2026, of a 94th edition dominated from start to finish, if you please!

Leading since the nighttime start on Thursday, the young Swede, successor to two-time world champion Kalle Rovanperä at Toyota, had pulled away irresistibly.

Constantly pushing the limits, Solberg Jr. had stifled his two new teammates, Sébastien Ogier, the record holder for the hill climb (10 victories), and Elfyn Evans, around Gap.
