Video: Behind the scenes at the RAC Rally – How Lucozade helped save Jardine’s rally
Autosport supported driver and former Formula 1 analyst Tony Jardine almost retired when his clutch started slipping during a stage in Wales, but his co-driver Allan Harryman managed to keep the car going with the help of cable ties and Lucozade. They were able to make it to a road section where the team picked them up, and the car was repaired overnight in order to continue the rally the next day in Carlisle. Despite Jardine’s troubles, Oliver Solberg dominated the Saturday stages, winning five out of six stages in his Mk2 Ford Escort. He built a substantial lead over Marty McCormack, with Osian Pryce retiring due to a mechanical issue. The RAC Rally, a 350-mile marathon, will conclude on Monday.
