Boyle keeps title hopes alive with Clare win

With their fourth win of the campaign Donegal’s Declan Boyle/Brian Boyle (Subaru WRC) remain in contention to win back-to-back Dunlop titles.

The pair were successful in yesterday’s Oakwood Arms Hotel Clare Rally, the penultimate round of the series. They finished a minute and 14.4 seconds ahead of Welsh pair Hugh Hunter/Andy Marchbank (Subaru WRC).

Clonmel’s Roy White and his Cork co-driver, James O’Brien (MG ZR), were a minute and 16.2 seconds further behind in third — they claimed 16 Dunlop points to move into the lead of the series.
