Simon Moore and Emma Morrison claimed their first BRC Challenge victory after an impressive display on the Kielder stages of the Pirelli Challenge Rally.
Moore took control of the event from the off, setting the fastest time on the opening stage in his yellow liveried Renault Clio, and in turn pushing round one winner and pre-event favourite Matt Edwards into second place.
The seven second advantage over Edwards and the rest of the competition grew further after stage two, when Edwards suffered terminal suspension failure. His retirement not only impacted the rally, but will also have a profound effect upon the championship.
