We publish our audit record because accuracy claims should be checkable. Every entry on this site runs through an automated fact-audit pipeline (accuracy audit → source-grounded repair → visual QA); this page is generated from that pipeline's own report, not written by hand.

Ford Fiesta RS WRC — The Fiesta RS WRC did not win a Manufacturers' title in 2012; the 2012 Manufacturers' Championship was won by Citroën.
Toyota Celica GT-Four — The ST185's first WRC win was in the 1990 1000 Lakes Rally, not the 1990 Rally Australia.
Citroën Xsara WRC — The entry states the Xsara WRC was used from 2001 through 2005, but the car was actually used through the 2006 season.
Citroën Xsara WRC — The entry claims Sébastien Loeb won two Drivers' World Championships (2004 and 2005) in the Xsara WRC, but he also won the 2006 Drivers' Championship in the Xsara WRC, making it three titles in the car.
Mitsubishi Ralliart — The entry states that Mäkinen drove the Evo IV and then the Evo V during his title years (1996–1999), but he actually won the 1996 title with the Lancer Evo III, the 1997 title with the Evo IV, the 1998 title with the Evo V, and the 1999 title with the Evo VI.
Mitsubishi Ralliart — The LORE section says 'the WRC regulations had shifted toward Group A and then the new Super 2000 and WRC car formats' — this is chronologically confused; Group A was the regulation in place during Mitsubishi's success in the 1990s, the shift to WRC car regula
Sébastien Loeb — Loeb did not win the 2013 WRC title, so the claim 'He did not lose the title in 2013' is misleading and factually incorrect.
Sébastien Loeb — The claim that Loeb 'won all but three of the WRC rallies on that surface in which he participated between 2005 and 2013' is not supported by canonical records; he did not win every tarmac rally in that period (e.g., Rallye Deutschland 2012).
Sébastien Ogier — Ingrassia departed at the end of 2020, but he actually left after the 2021 season
Colin McRae — The tagline 'the Stig of gravel' is an invented claim; McRae was never called that in real WRC history.
Colin McRae — The DID YOU KNOW section says McRae drove with his left foot on both the throttle and the brake, which is incorrect; he used his left foot for braking and clutch, and his right foot for the throttle.
Carlos Sainz Sr. — The entry states Sainz led the 'German-based Volkswagen Motorsport team from 2013 to 2015,' but he was not the team principal; Jost Capito held that role, and Sainz was a brand ambassador and test driver.
Carlos Sainz Sr. — The 'DID YOU KNOW' section says Sainz became a team principal for the 'Spanish Volkswagen rally team,' but there was no Spanish Volkswagen rally team; Volkswagen Motorsport was based in Germany, and Sainz was not a team principal for any Volkswagen rally team.
