Breen’s flying start to SWRC title quest

WATERFORD’S Craig Breen (Fiesta S2000) made the best possible start to his SWRC title challenge with a category victory in the Monte Carlo Rally that was won by Citroen’s Sebastien Loeb.

Breen capitalised on the late retirement of Sweden’s, PG Andersson (Proton Satria) to win the S2000 section.

Meanwhile, Loeb took a comfortable victory over Dani Sordo (MINI WRC), who managed to keep Petter Solberg (Fiesta WRC) at bay for the runner–up spot.
