Rally organisers cancel SS20

The organisers of Rally Mexico have cancelled one of Sunday’s four stages on safety grounds.

The 7.05km Sauz Seco was the shortest gravel stage of the rally and had been scheduled to run at 0934hrs as the middle of the morning’s loop of three stages.

The only brand new stage in this year’s event, Sauz Seco featured a steep descent with multiple downhill hairpin corners and steep drops by the roadside.

Event officials were expecting thousands of spectators to visit the stage on Sunday.

The rest of Sunday’s competition will run according to the original timetable.
