Description

Ott Tänak is a professional Estonian rally driver and the 2019 World Rally Champion. As of January 2026, Tänak is taking an indefinite sabbatical from full-time competition in the World Rally Championship (WRC) to spend more time with his family. He most recently competed for Hyundai Motorsport during the 2025 season before announcing his break following the season finale in Saudi Arabia.
Tänak won the Estonian Rally Championship in 2008 and 2009, driving for the team run by former world rally winner Markko Märtin. Tänak made his World Rally Championship debut on the 2009 Rally de Portugal, finishing 20th overall. In September 2009 Tänak won the European Pirelli Star Driver shootout held in Austria. This gave him the opportunity to compete on six rounds of the 2010 World Rally Championship season. He won the PWRC category on the 2010 Rally Finland and 2010 Rally GB.
Before the 2018 season Tänak signed a two-year deal with Toyota Gazoo Racing WRT, run by 4-time world champion Tommi Mäkinen. His team-mates are Jari-Matti Latvala and Kris Meeke.
