It had 14 special stages totalling 407.64 competitive kilometres. 24 out of 32 racer finished the rally successfully. Report After missing the rallies of Mexico and Portugal to compete in the FIA Grand Touring Series, Sébastien Loeb marked his return to rallying with first place in the Rally Argentina. Sébastien Ogier took the lead early on, but made a mistake whilst driving in heavy fog. He lost forty seconds, allowing Loeb to seize the advantage. Jari-Matti Latvala and Mikko Hirvonen fought over the final podium position until Hirvonen's Citroën DS3 WRC developed an electrical problem. Latvala could not afford to rest, as he found himself fighting with Evgeny Novikov. A late charge on the final day—including the fastest time on the power stage—was enough for Latvala to secure third place and his first podium in Argentina. Hirvonen recovered to finish sixth overall, finishing third on the power stage to score an additional World Championship point.Loeb claims eighth Argentine Win http://www.wrc.com/news/archive/loeb-claims-eighth-argentine-win/?fid=18548 WRC.com 4 May 2013 4 October 2013 Entry list Thirteen World Rally Cars were entered into the event, as were eight entries in the WRC-2 championship for cars built to Group N and Super 2000 regulations.Rally Argentina Entry List http://www.rallyargentina.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Listado-Inscriptos-RA131.pdf Rallyargentina.com 4 September 2013 5 October 2013 https://web.archive.org/web/20131005143947/http://www.rallyargentina.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Listado-Inscriptos-RA131.pdf dead Notable entrants No. Car number Entrant Class Entries registered to score manufacturer points Driver Co-driver Car Tyre Tyre supplier 1 FRA Citroën Total Abu Dhabi WRT WRC FRA Sébastien Loeb MON Daniel Elena Citroën DS3 WRC Michelin 2 FRA Citroën Total Abu Dhabi WRT WRC FIN Mikko Hirvonen FIN Jarmo Lehtinen Citroën DS3 WRC Michelin 4 GBR Qatar M-Sport WRT WRC NOR Mads Østberg SWE Jonas Andersson Jonas Andersson (co-driver) Ford Fiesta RS WRC Michelin 5 GBR Qatar M-Sport WRT WRC RUS Evgeny Novikov AUT Ilka Minor Ford Fiesta RS WRC Michelin 7 DEU Volkswagen Motorsport WRC FIN Jari-Matti Latvala FIN Miikka Anttila Volkswagen Polo R WRC Michelin 8 DEU Volkswagen Motorsport WRC FRA Sébastien Ogier FRA Julien Ingrassia Volkswagen Polo R WRC Michelin 9 DEU Volkswagen Motorsport II WRC NOR Andreas Mikkelsen FIN Mikko Markkula Volkswagen Polo R WRC Michelin 10 FRA Abu Dhabi Citroën Total WRT WRC ESP Dani Sordo ESP Carlos del Barrio Citroën DS3 WRC Michelin 11 GBR Qatar World Rally Team WRC BEL Thierry Neuville BEL Nicolas Gilsoul Ford Fiesta RS WRC Michelin 12 ITA Lotos Team WRC WRC POL Michał Kościuszko POL Maciej Szczepaniak Mini John Cooper Works WRC DMACK 21 CZE Jipocar Czech National Team WRC CZE Martin Prokop CZE Michal Ernst Ford Fiesta RS WRC DMACK 22 AUT Stohl Racing WRC BRA Daniel Oliveira Daniel Oliveira (rally driver) POR Carlos Margalhaes Ford Fiesta RS WRC Michelin 23 GBR Qatar World Rally Team WRC ARG Gabriel Pozzo POR Daniel Stillo Ford Fiesta RS WRC Michelin 33 AUT Stohl Racing WRC-2 GER Armin Kremer GER Kaus Wicha Subaru Impreza WRX STi Michelin 34 BEL Symtech Racing WRC-2 UKR Yuriy Protasov EST Kuldar Sikk Subaru Impreza STi R4 Michelin 37 ITA Lorenzo Bertelli WRC-2 ITA Lorenzo Bertelli ITA Lorenzo Granai Subaru Impreza WRX STi N15 Michelin 38 MEX Moto Club Igualda WRC-2 MEX Ricardo Triviño ESP Alex Haro Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IX Michelin 41 PER Nicolàs Fuchs WRC-2 PER Nicolàs Fuchs ARG Fernando Mussano Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX DMACK 48 QAT Seashore Qatar Rally Team WRC-2 QAT Abdulaziz Al-Kuwari IRE Killian Duffy Ford Fiesta RRC Michelin 72 ARG Juan Carlos Alonso WRC-2 ARG Juan Carlos Alonso ARG Juan Pablo Monasterolo Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IX DMACK 77 ITA Top Run SRL WRC-2 ARG Marcos Ligato ARG Rubén García Subaru Impreza WRX STi Michelin Icon Class WRC WRC entries eligible toscore manufacturer points WRC Major entry ineligible toscore manufacturer points WRC-2 Registered to take part inWRC-2 championship WRC-3 Registered to take part inWRC-3 championshipJ-WRC Registered to take part inJunior WRC championship Special stages Day Stage Name Length Winner No. Car number Team Time Avg. spd.
