Tom Kristensson continues consistent FIA Junior WRC Championship success after over 120 kilometres of competitive stages on the opening day of Tour de Corse.
Jan Solans drew first blood on SS1 as he opened up an impressive six-second advantage on his favourite surface of the Junior WRC Championship. The success was short-lived when a puncture cost him over two minutes on SS2, handing Kristensson the stage win and class lead.
Kristensson's day was by no means easy as the likes of Julius Tannert, Dennis Rådström and Martins Sesks were within 20 seconds of the lead.
Tour de Corse claimed its first Junior WRC victim on SS2 as the crew of Sean Johnston and Alex Kihurani ploughed into a rock face and rolled the car off the edge of the road. The impact was largely broken by trees that caught the car from falling further. The EcoBoost-powered Ford Fiesta R2T did its job in protecting the drivers who emerged unscathed.
Latvian Martins Sesks was looking forward to a competitive #Event but all hopes of this were shattered in seconds as he went skating off the road on SS3 leading the car to a steep drop and very sudden stop. Sesks and co-driver Krisjanis Caune exited the car uninjured.
