Mark Gormley took his second successive Realish Rally Championship title in dominant fashion, winning six out of seven rallies and finishing 28 points clear of his nearest challenger, PJ Tierney. The only other drive to win a rally was Nic Redhead in 3rd, who like Tierney was returning to Realish Racing competition after a long absence. Realish Rally Championship 2.0 runner-up Lazaros Filippakos was 4th.
With two drivers in the top 5, Bad Pun Racing took an equally dominant Teams Championship win, 47 points clear of UPA. Tierney and Redhead ran single-car Privateer teams which finished 3rd and 4th, respectively.
Gormley’s dominance was thanks to a deadly combination of speed and consistency. While not always the fastest driver over a single stage, the Irishman was never far from the front and made fewer mistakes than his rivals, notably at Scotland where he won the rally and was the only contender to finish in the top six.
In total, 24 drivers entered at least one rally, of whom 16 scored points, while seven stood on the podium. 17 teams were entered, with 13 of those scoring points and six scoring a podium finish.
The Realish Rally Championship will return in early 2021.
