ROBINSON MAKES WINNING RETURN IN YORKSHIRE
After an eight-month sabbatical, Matthew Robinson was back at the wheel of his historic Ford Mk2 Escort on the recent Malton Forest Rally, his first rally since March due to health problems.
Robinson, after a storming performance, told Motorsport News: “I’ve done nothing at all since Rally North Wales in March, but I am not one for sitting about. I felt fit enough and I am back, but just being careful.”
After a test in the car in the week before the rally, fifth overall and first twowheel drive, with regular co-driver Sam Collis, showed that Robinson had lost none of his renowned pace.
Now he plans to tackle the Grizedale Stages in early December.
