Donagh Kelly looks to grasp championship opportunity in Killarney

Winner of the opening two rounds in Galway and Clonakilty, the Donegal driver opted to skip the Circuit of Ireland, where Sam Moffett (Ford Fiesta WRC) moved to the top of the leaderboard — eight points ahead of Kelly.
Moffett is one of a number of high-profile drivers not competing in Killarney while reigning champion Declan Boyle, the top seed and former champion Garry Jennings are both out — due to transmission issues.
