    WORLD RALLY DRIVERS, WHO WEARS WHAT ??

    Whilst watching footage from WRC Argentina on Sunday it's hard not to notice Sebastien Ogier's Richard Mille.
    The others are a bit more coy, I wonder who wears what both 'officially' and 'unofficially'.
    I believe Colin McRae had a Steel Daytona.
    Certina sponsor the Citroen team and Pulsar Ford.
    I also noticed the winners were presented with Certinas, although I couldn't see which model.

    Mark Higgins wears Rolex - he may well wear others, I'll ask him when I see him next.
    It's just a matter of time...

    I read somewhere that he's collected a few Omegas from his 'other job' too.

    Ask him how his Nova is coming on.

    Will do. He is a very nice guy; went to school together, and he loves his other job(s) (filming, and fast Subaru laps of the IoM) as well as the rallying of course - his brother was always bloody good too!
    It's just a matter of time...

    When I did the pace notes for Kris Meeke at Goodwood a few years ago he had plastic Casio analogue thing.

    Dear God !

    Ari Vatanen wore Fred (powered by Seiko 7A38).



    This is his actual watch worn on the 1988 Paris Dakar:

    Thread resurrection !

    Noticed the original Seb on TV the other day, also wearing a Richard Mille.
    The Two Seb's must be the only drivers who have been paid enough to afford One.

    As for Co-Drivers I think I've spotted Robert Reid wearing a Daytona, I think Nicky Grist has one too.

    I guess they mostly wear whatever they are paid to by sponsors...in public at least!

    I met Ari Vatanen a couple of months ago and he had on a well worn Rolex, possibly Pepsi GMT maybe someone with good eye can confirm the model !!

    Nice. He's always come across as a down to earth guy.

    Noticed Malcom Wilson rocking a Richard Mille recently.
    Wonder if Seb helped him with some discount ???
