Qatar World Rally Team
The Qatar World Rally Team is a Qatari World Rally Championship team, based in Cumbria, United Kingdom. HistoryThey made their debut at the 2012 Rally of Sweden, entering a single Citroën DS3 WRC for Nasser Al-Attiyah and co-driver Giovanni Bernacchini.[1] Al-Attiyah was unable to contest the full season, owing to his qualification for the 2012 Summer Olympics, and the car was variously driven by Chris Atkinson in Finland,[2] Thierry Neuville in New Zealand and Italy,[3] and Hans Weijs, Jr. in Spain.[4] On 26 November 2012, British based M-Sport announced a new partnership with the State of Qatar and that Mads Østberg and Nasser Al-Attiyah would be driving Ford Fiesta RS WRCs for the 2013 season.[5] The team expanded to include a third and a fourth car, submitting entries for Juho Hänninen and Thierry Neuville.[6][7] WRC results
