Janne Kristian Ferm (born 29 August 1980) is a Finnish rally co-driver. He is best known for his long-time partnership with Esapekka Lappi.

Rally career

[edit]

A former footballer, Ferm first started co-driving in Lånsirannikko Rally in 2005 and later began his rally career in 2009, co-driving for several drivers before forming a partnership with Esapekka Lappi in the next year.[1] In the 2011 Rally Finland, he made his WRC debut, where the crew drove in a Citroën C2 R2 Max.[2]

In 2012, Ferm and Lappi won the 2012 Finnish Rally Championship, winning all 7 rounds.[3] In 2013, the Finnish crew was signed by Škoda Motorsport and competed selected events in WRC-2 in a Škoda Fabia S2000.[4]

In 2016, the crew won the WRC-2 championship with the Škoda Fabia R5 after winning in Finland, Germany, Wales and Australia.[5]

Lappi and Ferm during 2017 Rally Finland, where they achieved their first WRC victory.

Lappi and Ferm were signed by Toyota Gazoo Racing to drive a Toyota Yaris WRC in the 2017 World Rally Championship.[6] On their second event with the team, the 2017 Rally Italia Sardegna, the crew won their first ever stage in the WRC, along with five more stage wins. They eventually finished fourth overall.[7] In just their fourth World Rally Car start, at their home event of 2017 Rally Finland, the crew took their first WRC victory.[8]

In October 2018, Toyota announced that both Lappi and Ferm would leave the team at the end of the 2018 championship.[9] They joined Citroën for the 2019 season, partnering with multiple champion Sébastien Ogier.[10]

Heading into the 2020 World Rally Championship season with the departure of Citroën World Rally Team from the top flight of the WRC Lappi and Ferm found themselves moving again, this time to M-Sport World Rally Team. The crew only lasted at Ford until the end of the 2021 World Rally Championship season, as in 2022, they partnered at Toyota again.

In 2023, Lappi and Ferm switched to Hyundai Shell Mobis World Rally Team.[11] The pair remained with Hyundai on a part-time basis[12] for the 2024 season during which they took their second WRC victory at Rally Sweden.[13]At Rally Chile, Ferm announced his retirement from World Rally Championship. His last outing as a co-driver was for Heikki Kovalainen in San Marino's historic rally festival Rallylegend in October.[14]

As of 2026, Ferm works as a commentator for MTV Urheilu.[15]
