Rally Ypres, Round Six of the 2010 Intercontinental Rally Challenge gets under way on Friday afternoon and the stakes could not be higher.
Peugeot UK’s Kris Meeke and Paul Nagle are the IRC defending champions, and they’ll be keen to repeat last year’s win on the Belgian stages. Skoda UK’s Guy Wilks is sidelined with fractured vertebrae, but the works team drivers Juho Hänninen and Jan Kopecky will be there, along with Belgian favourite Freddy Loix, plus Alister McRae and Chris Atkinson in their Protons and Andreas Mikkelsen in his Ford Fiesta S2000.
