Martin Walsh Motorsport

Waterford’s Craig Breen and his Killarney co-driver Paul Nagle (Fiesta R5) took their second Irish Tarmac Championship victory of the season in winning the Clonakilty Park Hotel West Cork Rally that ended in sunny conditions, a stark contrast to its blizzard-like start.

Breen/Nagle finished 22.2 seconds ahead of the similar Fiesta R5 of Fermanagh’s Alistair Fisher and his co-driver Gordon Noble. Welsh driver Tom Cave and his co-driver Patrick Walsh (Hyundai i20 R5) took third and top points in the British Rally Championship, 15.1 seconds further behind.
