Andalucia Rally 2022: Electrical problem plays tricks on Erik van Loon, Anja experiences top day

During the third stage of the Andalucia Rally, Erik van Loon and Sébastien Delaunay start strong. At the halfway stage they are fourth in the Toyota Hilux, but then the car no longer responds to the gas pedal. Van Loon hopes to start in the final stage tomorrow. For Anja van Loon and Jan van de Laar the day went very differently, they drove well in the Can-Am Maverick X3 and only had a flat tire. For Anja, it feels like a top day.

"There might have been a top three today," Erik says. "We went off once, fortunately without damage and had to stick a few times, but otherwise it just went top. It's just not happening, we need a bit of luck. When we drive we are competitive, so it's time for things to fall into place. Hopefully tomorrow we can ride the last stage and with a good performance help the team to the win in the World Championship."

It's a good day for Anja: "Actually, everything went well. The car was good, Jan did a great job, it was just a top day. A very nice and varied test. On to tomorrow!"

The final stage will be held around Cadíz and has a 105-kilometer long test. The first car will start at 11:15 and is expected at the finish around 12:21. Directly at the finish of the stage is the finish podium, participants will then return to the service park.
