The 2017 World Rally Championship got underway last month, with M-Sport World Rally Team driver Sebastien Ogier and co-driver Julien Ingrassia picking up the win at the Rallye Monte Carlo in their Ford Fiesta.

Just a little over two minutes behind was second-place finisher Jari-Matti Latvala and his co-driver Miikka Anttila in the all-new Toyota Yaris WRC car.

The Rallye Monte Carlo is one of the most historic events on the calendar, with the drivers having to tackle icy conditions.

Just how well are they able to cope? Take a look for yourself above, but promise us you won’t drive like this next it snows in your area!
