After lay-offs of nine months and three years respectively for ITV F1 analyst Tony Jardine and Daily Express journalist Bob McKenzie, the duo were successfully reunited in a Sportinglife.com Peugeot 206 to take their best ever overall result together on the Tempest Rally - the final round of the 2005 Kwik Fit Pirelli British Rally Championship.

"I needed it for our own pictures because I wanted to say thank you to Kumho for some great tyres after my first experience with them," he said, "but a champion's needs are greater!"

As well as the many fans lining the route, Daily Express competition winner Russell Lee also enjoyed getting close to the action after winning a prize from the Tempest Rally organisers to watch the event with the Sportinglife.com team and also a day's rally driving tuition at Chris Moore's RallySchool UK base just outside Leeds.

"Russell really took to rallying after going out to watch some of the most dramatic stages," Moore said. "His only motorsport experience so far has been to watch the British GP.

"When we get him to RallySchool UK he is going to enjoy learning to drive a rally car himself and who knows he could take the sport up later, but he is certainly in for a thrill!"
