Clean sweep for BP Ford #2; SS1 stopped after incident - two spectators suffer minor injuries.

SS1 itself was later stopped after Simon Harraway, who started rallying back in March, went off the road in his Subaru Impreza near point 7. Two spectators suffered minor injuries in the incident and were consequently taken to Morriston Hospital, Swansea by County Ambulance. Medical services though responded well and according to the organisers of the Rally GB were at the scene of the incident within three minutes.

In the FIA Production Car World Rally Championship category, Mark Higgins leads in his Mitsubishi, having set the PWRC pace in every single stage. Guy Wilks is next up, 6 seconds adrift, followed by Juho Haninnen, Gwyndaf Evans and Patrik Flodin.

Gabriel Pozzo, who is the only man that can stop Toshi Arai from taking the PWRC crown, is eighth. He needs to win this weekend though to take the Production title.
