Could be using a Motorsport Ireland licence, but it probably more to do with his Irish-American backers (http://abhusanseo.blogspot.com/2008/07/team-mcshea-will-fly-flag-for-multiple.html). Would look stupid having Irish sponsors with a UK flag on the car.

It a delicate subject, more important that he had car to drive. Hope he gets another crack at it.

This event was a total farce.

Amateur hour. When I saw it later on TV the competition was laughable!
The co-drivers didn't even read the notes.

Some read notes. Some did not seem to. This wasn't a rally but it was rally cars and on TV.

The fastest crews used notes. Block, Pastrana, McShea all used notes.

Competition was savage. A little mistake on the tarmac or the jump, and you are out.
