The World Rally Championship Manufacturers' Championship (WMC) is awarded by the FIA to the most successful WRC constructor over a season, as determined by a point system based on rally results. The WRC was formed from well-known and popular international rallies, most of which had previously been part of the European Rally Championship and/or the International Championship for Manufacturers; the series was first contested in 1973.[1] The first official rallying Constructor's Champion was Alpine-Renault.
