Argentina’s Marcos Ligato, Peru’s Nicolas Fuchs and Mexicans Benito Guerra and Ricardo Trivino.
Elsewhere, rising Spanish talent Jose Suarez (pictured) will carry home hopes on his shoulders in the WRC Academy for identical Ford Fiesta R2s.

RallyRACC-Rally de Espana gets underway with a ceremonial start in Barcelona on the evening of Thursday 8 November. Friday’s route features three all-gravel stages and three mixed-surface runs. Saturday and Sunday’s action takes place entirely on Tarmac roads.
