Läs om vad Fordföraren William Creighton tänker inför Rally Sweden 2024. Han kommer till start i Rally2-klassen med full backning av M-Sport.
William Creighton kan vara den utländske föraren som kört flest tävlingar på svensk mark de senaste åren (Kanske någon tysk VOC-förare eller norsk förare är flitigare?). Senaste helgen körde han föråkare i Lima där han tävlat flera gånger tidigare.
Nu kommer den irländske föraren till Sverige igen, men den här gången för att bemästra Rally Sweden och det i en Rally2-preppad Ford Fiesta från M-Sport tillsammans med sin co-driver Liam Regan.
Läs, på engelska, vad han tänker inför rallyt.
“I’ve competed in Lima a couple of times and I’ve always found it really beneficial to prepare before heading to Rally Sweden. I think it’s even more important this year as I step into the challenges the WRC2 category will bring with this new car, so I’m really happy to have this opportunity thanks to the MI Rally Academy.
– I’ve always enjoyed driving on the snow and we had good pace in Sweden last year. The aim is to get comfortable with the car and Lima presents a great opportunity to do that.
“I’m really happy to have a full WRC2 programme planned with the support of the MI Rally Academy and to have the opportunity to work with everyone at M-Sport. Liam and I have spent a week with the team at Dovenby Hall, which has allowed us to work with the mechanics and engineers so that we are well prepared for Lima & Rally Sweden.
“Participating in Junior WRC gave me great experience to build my pace in Sweden, which makes this transition to the WRC2 category much more manageable.
– The competition is so strong in WRC2 so I have to focus on my own event and making the step up before I look at the others!”
