Molly extremely happy with UK result

Molly has completed yesterday's Trackrod Rally Yorkshire with an impressive drive in her leased Suzuki Swift.

Competing in a left hand drive car for the very first time, and on roads she had never driven on before, Molly's result shows the talent the young Aussie has.  If not for a puncture, Molly would have finished the rally second in her class - an outstanding result.

The day's first stage was downgraded after an accident, and after a cautionary start on SS2, Molly was sixth in her class.  On SS3, a puncture one mile into the 13 mile stage meant that Molly, and co-driver Jemma Bellingham, had to stop and change the tyre.  They then got stuck behind another car, losing seven minutes.

From there on, though,  it all went from strength to strength. Molly was third fastest on the next few stages, with the gap to second closing all the time.  Incredibly, she was only 1.6 seconds behind second place after one 15 mile stage!

On the final three stages, Molly recorded second fastest times, finishing the event on a high note.

Obviously Molly's overall result was affected by the puncture but she is very happy with her stage times.

Molly reported that she had a great time and the team were fantastic.   "It was an incredible experience driving a new car, and a left hand drive one at that, with a new co-driver and on new roads.  It's unfortunate we had a puncture, but I think our stage times after that really showed what we are capable of," she added.
