Marcus Gronholm is one of the most successful drivers of all time with 30 wins. He won the championship in his first full season in 2000 and followed it up in 2002 with another drivers championship.
He had some disappointing seasons with Peugoet after that which prompted him to join Ford. In 2006, he finished 2nd just 1 point behind Sebastien Loeb and again in 2007, runner up to Loeb finishing 4 pts behind.
