In the relative calm before the storm on the start of day 2, we caught up with a range of individuals that are involved in the rally. We caught up with overnight rally leader Daniel Cronin, the man who set fastest stage times on 8 of the 9 stages but still lies 6th, Casey Jay…
With all the cars in , here is how the results look overnight, and presumably will be the starting order for the morning.

Daniel Cronin is still leading after SS8, with the lead now extended to 12.3sec. What’s more important though is that he was only 2.8sec slower than Casey Jay Coleman Rallying, well within the safety net with 10 stages to go. He has the luxury, if you want to call it that of concentrating with the…
Casey Jay Coleman Rallying is definitely not out of the rally yet, he has just posted the fastest stage time on SS7, and got back into the top 10, albeit 3m15.4sec off the top spot. On that gap he would have to be around 18sec faster every stage than Daniel Cronin to get back to…
Right, here is more flesh on the bones of what transpired on SS6, the big news is our leader losing about 3m30s and dropping down 13 places. By doing this, it has put Daniel Cronin into top spot with a lead of 7.8sec and has moved everyone up a spot, some drivers two spots by…
