Bogie takes 50th outright win on home event

David Bogie partnered again with long-time co-driver Kevin Rae in the Skoda Fabia R5 run by Fuchs-backed CA1 Sport to notch up his fiftieth career win on the Scottish rally last weekend.  The crew had a trouble free run on the usually unforgiving gravel roads of south west Scotland and were only bested to a clean sweep of fastest times by Jock Armstong / Cameron Fair (Subaru Impreza) on the fifth of the six stages.

Afterwards, a delighted Bogie said “It’s always special to win your home event but it makes it even more special when it is win number 50!”

Yates in European adventure

Rhys Yates and co-driver Elliott Edmondson travelled to the south of France last week to take part in the Rallye Antibes Cote D’Azur.  As usual, their Skoda Fabia R5 was prepared and looked after on-event by Martin Wilkinson and his crew from Fuchs backed CA1 Sport in Carlisle.

Afterwards, an elated Yates said “Some epic roads here in France and to take 7th overall against some massively experienced drivers is a real confidence boost.

Huge thanks to CA1 Sport Ltd for their fantastic support and to Elliott Edmondson Co-Driver for a stunning job on the notes.”

The CA1 crew who looked after Bogie on the Scottish event last weekend are now en-route to Barbados to look after Tom Preston (Skoda Fabia R5) on the up-coming King of the Hill event this Saturday which sorts out the seeding for the two day Rally Barbados next weekend.
