Monaghan's Josh Moffett and his Limerick co-driver Keith Moriarty (Hyundai i20 R5) took victory in the Waterford based Raven's Rock Rally, the fourth round of the Triton Showers National Rally Championship. The results were finalised late on Sunday evening following a decision by the clerk of the course to reject a protest from pre-event series leaders Kilkenny's Eddie Doherty and his Limerick co-driver Tom Murphy against a six minute penalty imposed after they arrived late for the seventh stage of the event.

Moffett/Moriarty finished 14.2s ahead of the Derry/Donegal pairing of Desi Henry/Dean O'Sullivan (Ford Fiesta Rally2) with Donegal's Declan Boyle and co-driver Patrick Walsh (Skoda Fabia Rally2) another 10.5s behind in third. Doherty/Murphy were classified are currently twenty-seventh.
