Stonethrowers Rally for Molly this weekend |
Molly has again been joined in the UK by her mum and co-driver, Coral as they prepare for this weekend's Stonethrowers Rally in Tipperary in Ireland. The rally is a one day tarmac event held in southern Ireland and consists of six stages in total (three stages each run twice) with a total competitive distance of 106 kilometres.
Molly and Coral head to Ireland today (Friday) before recce on Saturday and the rally on Sunday. It's then an overnight ferry trip back to England so that Molly can go to work on Monday!
“The roads are known for being quite tricky and technical so the opportunity to repeat each stage during the rally makes it an ideal event to help improve our notes and get ready for the next BRC round in Ulster in a couple of weeks," Molly said.
"It’s a chance to get some more tarmac miles up and start Ulster with a good rhythm.”

Podium place for Molly at Manx Rally |
|
Molly and Coral have finished the Isle of Man Rally, round four of the British Rally Championship on the podium. Driving her Citroen C2R2 Max to third in the hotly contested Citroen Racing Trophy, Molly also finished the event in an impressive 14th place outright.
With the wet, slippery roads causing many drivers to come to grief, Molly was able to maintain a consistent pace and finish the event in a solid position. A number of leading BRC drivers commented that it was the most difficult rally they have ever done, making Molly's result even more impressive.
"I am really happy with the learning over the weekend," Molly said. "The goal was to increase the pace and fight for a podium, so I can't ask for more."
"It was an incredibly difficult rally and I'm very happy to have a clean run."
