    BRC Nicky Grist Stages 2016

    ROUND 5: Nicky Grist Stages 2016

    The first day (Saturday 9 July) will be run over 45 miles of challenging gravel roads, while the second day (Sunday 10 July) will take place over 55 miles of fast and undulating Tarmac.

    The MSA British Rally Championship crews will contest the full two days – with drivers such as Elfyn Evans (Ford Fiesta R5), David Bogie (ŠKODA Fabia R5) and Keith Cronin (Citroën DS3 R5) competing on gravel and Tarmac.

    Looking forward to it - haven't been out spectating for a while; can only do the Saturday, but should be back down there in a few weeks for the Harry Flatters.

    Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???

    As we wait for times, news from Stage 2 Fredrik Aahlin is off. Crew ok. Not good news for the Swede.

    Evans: We had a spin in the first stage and had to reverse. Some places are very greasy and slippery, others have good grip.

    Times after Stage 4, end the first loop:

    1 Elfyn Evans 0:22:34.2
    2 David Bogie 0:22:52.8
    3 Tom Cave 0:22:58.3
    4 Jamie Anderson 0:23:27.3
    5 Desi Henry 0:23:28.4
    6 Jonathan Greer 0:23:31.5
    7 Josh Moffett 0:23:51.4
    8 Rhys Yates 0:23:56.8
    9 Matt Edwards 0:24:15.1
    10 Ollie Mellors 0:24:25.8

    Bogie made back some time on SS4 and Evans lead now 18s.

    I wonder if Ahlin is regretting skipping Finland now for BRC? Shame to see the wheels fall off his title bid.

    Perhaps Ahlin was pushing a bit hard on today's gravel, trying to offset a possible Evans superiority on tarmac tomorrow ?

    Real shame to lose a main contender again and so early.

    Evans just needs a solid run now to have a big lead in the Ch'ship.

    Ahlin: 'Went off on SS2 and got stuck in the ditch! Got caught out on a bit where they had been logging and just slid of the road, it's how it is...'
