James duplicates first-round time In Fethard

Most of the cars are still out on Stage 2 of the Fethard Rally, but there's a definite pattern developing at the sharp end.

David James has recorded a time of 9:06 in the second stage - exactly the same time in which he covered the route first time round.

John Nolan is the only other driver in so far, with a time 11 seconds slower.

However, the Carlow man's 9:17 performance has shaved nine seconds of his opening stage time.
