The 1999 Tour de Corse (formally the 43rd Tour de Corse - Rallye de France) was a motor racing event for rally cars that was held over three days between 7 and 9 May 1999. It marked the 43rd running of the Tour de Corse, and was the sixth round of the 1999 World Rally Championship season.^[2] The 1999 event was based in the city of Ajaccio in France and was contested over sixteen special stages, covering a total competitive distance of 353.05km (319.38 miles).

Philippe Bugalski was the defending rally winner, stunning the world by beating the World Rally Championship drivers competing for manufacturers points. Tommi Makinen lead the championship with twenty six points; three more than closest rival Didier Auriol.

The event was won by Bugalski, bringing him into the top five of the World Rally Championship standings despite not being a manufacturer driver.^[3] This would foreshadow the prevalence of kit cars the World Rally Championship would see in the mid-2000s, especially on tarmac rallies.

Report

Overall

Summary

Also in Corsica it was no surprise that the Citroën Xsara Kit Cars of Philippe Bugalski and Jesús Puras once again gave the World Rally Car guard a hard time. In a way, this performance proved to be even more dominant than the previous round on the Spanish tarmac, indirectly resulting in an overhaul of the regulations for next season to the detriment of FIA F2 cars. Bugalski took matters into his own hands on the opening day and did not lose his grip on the lead for the remainder of the race, allowing him to spray the winner's champagne for the second consecutive time. Puras kept up with his teammate during rally, but a single stitch here and there was not enough, despite a creditable second place, which also meant a 1-2 result for the Citroën team. This time it was Carlos Sainz who stayed closest and would complete the podium in third place. The rally also saw the debut of the Peugeot 206 WRC in the hands of François Delecour and Gilles Panizzi, where good times on special stages for both drivers preceded an early retirement.

This version of the Tour de Corse tested the format of the TV stage, the final special stage of the World Cup, which was shown live on television, giving the first three crews extra points for the drivers and builders ’championship. With the fastest crew receiving three points the second-fastest receiving two points, and the third-fastest receiving one point. Those who had retired in previous special offers also made it.^[5]
