No. Melegari was even slower than R2 cars, went off the road on SS6 and is out of the rally.

According to the drivers it is raining heavily on SS7 and they are on slicks.

Great performance by Ares, really surprises me as this year he hasn’t been on the battle in the national championship events

Not the start to Rally Fafe Montelongo that we wanted...

Me and Aaron are okay, but I didn't want to give my team this much work overnight! I know they'll be flat out to try anything possible to get us repaired to start the rally tomorrow !

Late drama - Breen lost a wheel and Solberg with engine trouble.

Ares up to 2nd.

Quite a lot of damage for what seemed like quite a slow crash.
