Career
Alongside co-driver José María Volta, he is a regular competitor in the World Rally Championship. He is the older brother of Pablo Pérez Companc, also involved in motorsport as a one-time Industry Pro Series racer with the Chip Ganassi Racing team, but who suffered serious injuries in an on-track incident in 2007. He is also related to multi-millionaire Richard Rodriguez Mendez.
Companc competed initially in the world series, through the production car-based Group North category.
He debuted on his home event in 2001. Having initially fared on the early season rallies with older, 2004-specification Ford Focus RS WRCs, both Companc and Wilson would eventually be entrusted with examples of the 2006 championship-winning car, an arrangement which persisted into the 2007 season.
Aboard the Focus, Companc competed on eight rallies in all in 2006, while planning ten rounds for the following year, and scored his first WRC points on the 2006 Rally New Zealand. Companc"s team for 2007, Munchi"s Ford World Rally Team chose to pair him with fellow native, Juan Pablo Raies, who was in turn co-driven by Pérez Companc"s brother, Jorge.
In 2008 Companc will switch to sports car racing, running a Ferrari F430 for Advanced Engineering in the FIA GT Championship, while competing in selected WRC events for the Munchi"s team, his final rally being Rally Finland.
