Daragh O’Riordan eyes fourth Fastnet Rally

On the recent Cork “20” the Midleton man was targeting a fourth straight win until he crashed. What effect this stop will have on his performance in Bantry should be seen in the first of three loops of three stages.
Kerry’s Alan Ring in the Mel Evans-hired S12B Subaru WRC, seeded behind O’Riordan, has withdrawn. The car will be driven by Evans, who is a late entry. It may well be the Welshman will give O’Riordan a stern test. The Welshman won the Fastnet in 2010 the same year he was the first driver from overseas to win the National series.
