    Seeded entry list for this weekend's East Riding Stages closed road event. A real blast from the past with Jonny Milner wheeling out the old Toyota Corolla WRC!

    Yes you can.
    On the 2012 Trackrod Tom Cave & Osian Price were equal to the tenth of a second after all six stages. Cave was declared the winner because he was 0.1s faster on the first stage.

    And didn't Keith Cronin win the final leg of the 2017 season and thus the Championship by 0.1s ?!

    He was champion in 2017 but won Rally Isle of Man by 18.6 seconds. Maybe it was another year?

    I think the ‘1’ from that year was the fact Cronin won the championship by 1 point

    Found it...

    "So with one leg left, it was between championship leader Ahlin and Cronin who was on a mission to complete the ultimate series comeback and by the end of leg two, the Irish driver had done just that by claiming the victory in the final round of the season.

    Cronin showed his strength on tarmac and won the championship by a sole point ahead of Ahlin in turn thanks to Edwards who had again snatched crucial points away from the Swede after finishing second on leg two on the Isle of Man, incredibly finishing just 0.1 seconds behind Cronin."

    Ah - now I've got it!
    Rally Isle of Man was a double header. While Cronin won the whole event by 18.6 seconds he beat Matt Edwards by 0.1s on the second half (Legs 3 & 4) of the event to clinch the championship.
    You'd think, as Results Officer for Rally Isle of Man, I'd know this but the only memory I have these days is on the hard drives of the computers I have!

    I knew it had happened but it took a wee while to trace the event and exact circumstances. And I remember now it was so complicated to work out... with 3 drivers involved, two Legs on the same rally and jokers being played !

    Very good to see Matt Edwards back behind the wheel !

    He will be driving a Fiesta Rally2 in the 2023 Irish National Championship Midland Stages Rally this weekend.
