There wasn’t really any doubt after his stunning debut for the team at Rally Finland – but now Craig Breen has been confirmed as one of the Hyundai Motorsport team drivers for next month’s Wales Rally GB.
The newly-crowned Irish Tarmac Champion came home seventh in Finland, after allowing FIA World Rally Championship challenging team-mates Thierry Neuville/Nicolas Gilsoul to finish ahead of him.
But having been the top-placed Hyundai driver in fifth after day one, Breen and co-driver Paul Nagle continued to put on a superb and faultless display in the works Hyundai i20 Coupe WRC – and have rightly earned their Rally GB place.

“I’m so thankful to Hyundai Motorsport for putting their faith in me and Paul once again, especially on a rally so close to my heart as Rally GB! Back in the muddy Welsh forests, flat out, we can’t wait,” said Craig.
