Nationality: IrishCar: Ford Fiesta S2000 (also did four IRC events in a Peugeot 207 S2000)Championship position: 1st in SWRCPoints: 118 points (average tally per event: 16.86)Events: 7Wins: 4Podiums: 5 (in total)Points finishes: 5Stage wins: 27

If ever there was a driver that really deserv🐭ed to feature highღly in this top ten it is Craig Breen.

2012 was a year of triumph and tragedy for the Irishman, who having won the WRC Acad♊emy in 2011, went on to do the same this season, but in the S2000 World Rally Championship. Breen clinched the title on the final event in Spain, when he took his fourth SWRC victory of the year. He also impressively finished sixth overall on Rally de Espana, something that gave him eight 'senior' WRC points.

Despite his successes, however, the season was overshadowed by th💎e sad and tragic death of his friend and co-driver, Gareth Roberts. Roberts lost his life competing on the IRC Targa Florio-Rally Internazionale Di Sicilia in June - a stark reminder of the dangers of the sport.

B💎reen also suffered retirements in Portugal (mechanical) and Finland (accident), but given what happened in Sicily, those moments paled into insignificance.

In the end you gave Breen an average score of 6.709 out of ten, and🍰 that puts him fourth overall 𓂃in our vote.
