Wright Triumphs in Evo Parts Focus

Rally driver David Wright headed to GoodWood Festival Of Speed in his Evo Parts focus and had huge success in beating some of the fastest drivers in British Rallying. This Focus has also had success when Spanish Champion Carlos Sainz was in the driving seat.

“It was brilliant to get the win,” said a suitably delighted Wright. “The format felt a bit like F1 qualifying – you had to go flat out, but one little mistake would drop you right down the leaderboard. The course was quite narrow and very twisty, with trees and banks right at the side of the track, waiting to punish any errors.

“Thanks to Lord March for inviting us to rally in his garden; the International Rally Drivers Club and Southern Car Club for running the stage; Giles Philips Motorsport for the car; and Grove Hill Garage and Kumho Tyres for their support.”

Wright’s next outing in the Focus will be on the Nicky Grist Stages in Wales on 11th July.
