Yann Ehrlacher (born 4 July 1996) is a French auto racing driver who competes in the World Touring Car Cup for Cyan Performance Lynk & Co. He was the 2020 World Touring Car Cup winner and defended the title in 2021. He is the son of former racing driver Cathy Muller and Yves Ehrlacher, a former professional footballer. He is also the nephew of Yvan Muller, quadruple winner of the World Touring Car Championship.[1]

Debut in motor sport[edit]
