Donnelly leads national forest championship after Cork win

Following his victory in the Windscreen Centre Cork Forest Rally, Eugene Donnelly (Toyota Celica) is the new leader of the KBB Doors National Forest Championship.

It has been a busy weekend for Donnelly, who was co-driver on the Ulster Rally which finished yesterday. On today's fifth round in the forests of Killavullen and Banteer, Donnelly led from the start, although he had difficulty in acclimatising to the forest notes after the tarmac Ulster event.
