Breen is WRC Academy champion
Irishman lands huge career-incentive prize in dramatic finale
Craig Breen has won the inaugural WRC Academy Cup title and with it a scholarship of 500,000 Euros following a thrilling finish to the young-driver class on Wales Rally GB this afternoon.
Breen needed to win the final stage and claim the bonus point that put the title beyond the reach of Egon Kaur, who had led the standings from the opening round.
“It’s an amazing feeling,” said Breen. “I know I was the quickest driver over the whole series so to win is just brilliant.”
Egon Kaur said: “We had some damage to the filter mounting. We tried to fix it before this one and we also caught the car in front.”
