When the chequered flag fell on heat three at Nyirád last weekend (29-30 April), Anton Marklund was out of Euro RX of Hungary, no question, the damage inflicted to his Ford Fiesta RX by a first corner accident seemingly too great to repair in the short timeframe available. We decided that we could not continue with the damage after heat three – it shouldn’t have been possible to repair the car in that timeframe – but then there was a moment, where we sat and discussed and everyone stood up to at least try.“The guys worked flat-out. “We were so disappointed with what happened in heat three, and we actually thought we could not continue with the damage.“I have never, ever seen guys work as hard as they did to get the car somehow pulled together – it was actually so bad we need to now go home and fix it properly.
