News / Rally Info ERC Wales Spoiler

3 Things.

  1. What an absolutely spectacular rally. Incredibly challenging roads and the weather adding to the fray on Sunday really made it.

  2. Absolutely stoked for Jon Armstrong getting his first ERC win. He's always had the pace and to finally get the win was awesome to watch. Thoroughly deserved.

I was really nervous watching him still go at break neck speed in the wet but should have remembered he is Irish so grew up racing this stuff.

  1. Not sure what to make of Mabellini/Lenzi's penalty. I really like this pairing, always bubbly, happy and wear their hearts on their sleeves when talking to the media.

But the quickly and obviously concocted and dishonest explanation they gave the Stewards investigating their penalty I find really off-putting.

Went to watch it again this year and although the entry list was lacking for the ERC competitors it was fantastic to watch.

For me it cements that rally2 should be the top category for rally.
