Maximum points haul adds to Hyundai i20 N Rally2 crew’s Spanish Superchampionship points lead

07.11.2022: A third victory of the season for Pepe López confirmed the manufacturers’ title for Hyundai in the Spanish Superchampionship for the second consecutive season. The Hyundai España-supported driver won five of the nine stages of Rallye La Nucía-Medi

 
A third victory of the season for Pepe López confirmed the manufacturers’ title for Hyundai in the Spanish Superchampionship for the second consecutive season.




The Hyundai España-supported driver won five of the nine stages of Rallye La Nucía-Mediterráneo (November 3-5), including the first two tests, which gave him the early lead.
 


Three more stage wins, including on the bonus points-paying TC Plus, on the second day kept he and co-drover Borja Rozada ahead and gave them the maximum score to add to their lead in the standings with only one competitive round remaining in the campaign.


 
In another i20 N Rally2 Francisco Lopez finished sixth overall. Iván Ares, having been forced into retirement on the opening stage, restarted on day 2 and finished the weekend with the fastest time on the final stage in his i20 N Rally2.
