Junior WRC: Armstrong blasts to Ypres glory

Jon Armstrong rounded out a sensational weekend at Renties Ypres Rally Belgium by taking victory in the FIA Junior WRC. Armstrong was on the pace from the get-go, and led the field of identical M-Sport Poland Ford FIesta Rally4 cars from start to finish. The victory was Armstrong’s second of the season following success at the Croatia Rally in April. “I’m over the moon to take the win here in Belgium,” enthused Armstrong. “We put in such a strong performance at the start of the rally and tried to manage it from there. He showed glimpses of stunning pace and claimed seven stage wins, but was held back by oil pressure maladies and hit a kerb on Saturday. He was more than an hour down after restarting on the final day.
