Robert Lewandowski, Poland
Poland may not be the most glamorous team in the Cup but they have some solid and dependable players. They also have one of the most prolific frontmen in the world of football in Lewa, a player who’s picked up that winning habit as the focal point of Bayern Munich. He’ll want that goal scoring form to translate into national team success, too, and if he gets the right support, expect Poland to cause a few upsets.
His Wheels: Lewandowski is a powerful and graceful striker with classic “number 9” traits, so, of course, his top car, the Ferrari F12berlinetta, is a classic V12 mid-engined, rear-wheel-drive beast meant to cover lots of ground.

Luis Suárez, Uruguay
When Suárez decided to take a bite of the Catalan action and swapped the red of Liverpool for the colours of the Blaugrana, few expected him to dovetail so effectively with Messi and continue to consistently get his name on the scoreboard. Now he’ll be champing at the bit to leave his mark on the World Cup ― figuratively rather than literally leaving one in the shoulder of his opposition like last time.
His Wheels: No doubt Suárez has a bit of bite on him and his car does too. The Audi RS6 Performance is almost a sleeper with its station wagon looks but, like Suárez, it is capable of dropping the hammer down.
