Round 4: RSAC Scottish Rally, 29 June
Euan Thorburn got his season back on track with a decisive win in Dumfries, while championship leader David Bogie had to settle for the runner-up spot on his home event.
Thorburn led from start to finish, completing the five special stages almost 20 seconds ahead of the defending champion. Banchory's Quintin Milne snatched the final podium spot to consolidate his second place in the drivers' standings, eight points behind Bogie.
"We kept the pace up and made sure we were in front of David, but there were some big stones and rocks to watch out for, so it was also a case of keeping it tidy and avoiding punctures, said Thorbun.
