3rd in West Cork 🥉
A good result and a clean weekend but I felt like we had the speed to fight for the win but it was undone with 2 wrong tyre calls that just set us back and took us out of the fight.
Unreal to get a couple of stages on dry tar again😍
Thanks to everyone🤙

Disappointing Killarney for us again. These stages are really some of the best but it never seems to work out down there.Early pace was right at the front despite an ambitious tyre call which is positive but a small error had pretty harsh consequences in SS3.
Thanks to everyone.

Imagine if the promoter could fine themselves for all the times all live has dropped out 🤷♂️
A lapse in the service meant no onboard footage was available from Evans' car the morning loop yesterday.
Reminding about the importance of promotional aspect, TGR was handed a 5000€ fine added with 10 000€ if this lapse happens again in 2022.

So what do you think of my ride for this weekend’s Down Rally😍As most of you know my Hyundai was damaged after a fire on the recent Ypres rally.😞You could say this is a bit of a silver lining to that cloud. An ex-Jan Kopecky Škoda Fabia R5 to take around some classic stages👌
