Sebastien Ogier je pobedom u Australiji obezbedio timsku titulu za ekipu Volkswagen Motorsporta, istovremeno je povećao svoju prednost u poretku svetskog šampoionata za vozače na 50 bodova.

Jedini konkurent Ogieru je Jari-Matti Latvala, kome je u Australiji pošlo za rukom da osvoji drugo mesto, kao i dodatna tri bonus boda na tzv. powerstage ispitu.

Do kraja sezone preostala su još tri relija, pa je moguće da Ogier potvrdi drugu titulu pre završnog takmičenja u Velikoj Britaniji.

Treće mesto u Australiji je pripalo Andreasu Mikkelsenu, dok je Kris Meeke, zahvaljujući jučerašnjoj kazni zbog predubokog "hakla", ispao iz trke za mesto na podijumu i reli je završio na četvrtom mestu.

Najbolji M-Sportov vozač bio je Mikko Hirvonen na petoj poziciji, a novozelandski vozač Hayden Paddon na šestom mestu je najbolji od Hyundaijevih vozača.
