In December, Production Car World Rally Championship winner Armindo Araujo will line up alongside fellow FIA title winners Martin Prokop (J-WRC) and Sebastien Loeb (WRC) at the FIA prize-giving ceremony in Monaco.

And at the end of his most successful season in the WRC to date, it's a crown the 32-year old Portuguese driver richly deserves.
