Solid Points for Stobart in Corsica
Both Stobart VK M-Sport Ford nominated crews have finished the 13th round of the FIA World Rally Championship with a healthy tally of points today in Ajaccio.
Rallye de France – Tour de Corse brought out some amazing team spirit from Jari-Matti Latvala/Miikka Anttila who finished the event fourth after being in a podium position coming into the final stage this afternoon, but unselfishly played the team game to back up the BP Ford Abu Dhabi World Rally Team in their bid for a third consecutive Manufacturer crown.
Matthew Wilson/Scott Martin showed exactly what they are capable of in Corsica this week by moving from 14th on Friday night to eighth by the rally’s end and picking up two vital manufacturer points for their Stobart team.
Further demonstrating the strength of the Stobart team were Barry Clark/Paul Nagle who finished an impressive 10th on their debut in a world rally car on asphalt.
Completing the quartet was Henning Solberg/Cato Menkerud who shrugged off two punctures to finish the event 15th.
