The change comes just days after Ogier scored his first WRC win of the season in Rally Spain alongside Benjamin Veillas, who took over the co-driver seat this year, following the retirement of long-time navigator Julien Ingrassia at the end of 2021.
In a decision taken with the team after securing the manufacturers’ title, eight-time world champion Ogier has decided to offer an opportunity to up and coming co-driving star Landais to join him in Japan to evaluate a possible future collaboration.
