Ford seems to be unlucky with testing before Rally Ireland. This Saturday, Jari-Matti Latvala collided with another car on his way from the Ford test. Latvala was going in a common road car but luckily escaped with some neck and shoulder pain.
On Monday Henning Solberg (Stobart) were scheduled to do his test, but a tragic incident stopped everything. Just when the test were scheduled to start, the team lost contact with one of the marshals that made sure noone got into the closed road. When the team got there they found out that the marshal had tragically had a heart attack. The ambulance arrived soon after, but the 60 years old man’s life couldn’t be saved.
Let’s hope for more luck in the rally than in the tests for Ford.
