Revision as of 20:24, 6 January 2008

Juan Pablo Raies (born in Argentina) is a rally driver.

Raies made his World Rally Championship debut on his home event in 1992, aboard a Renault 18 GTX. He returned to participate in the same event intermittently over the course of the following decade, which culminated in tenth and eighth placed finishes respectively in the Group N production car-based category on the 2001 and 2002 running of these events, both with the then dominant choice in the formula, of the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution. He piloted a World Rally Car for the first time, in his instance a Subaru Impreza, on the 2005 Rally Argentina. In the same year, he became South American Rally Champion.

Raies was given a one-off chance with the Stobart VK Ford team on the Cyprus Rally during the 2006 season, retiring on special stage five due to an electrical problem with his Ford Focus WRC.

He was a driver for Munchi's Ford World Rally Team in the 2007 World Rally Championship season, as team-mate to the more established Luís Pérez Companc, brother of Raies' co-driver, Jorge Pérez Companc. Raies was excluded on his first outing with the team on the Swedish Rally, although he did still manage to achieve two twelfth placed finishes later in the year, on the Norweigian and Argentine events.
