Irish Tarmac Rally Championship leader Josh Moffett (Toyota GR Yaris Rally2) has yet to break his duck on the Rally of the Lakes and when the Asses Ireland underpinned event gets underway with the iconic Moll's Gap early on Saturday morning, he faces the second most successful driver in the history of the event.

This fourth round of the ITRC captures the imagination from many aspects with Derry's Callum Devine (Skoda Fabia RS Rally2) bid to equal the five-in-a-row record of the late Enniskillen driver Bertie Fisher (1990-1994), who also won in 1996 and Moffett's maiden quest the stand-out features.
