Team award must go to MRF, replacing a head and turbo on Katsu Taguchi’s car and a complete gearbox and diff change for Gaurav Gill.
Both cars made it to the finish in 6th and 7th place, scoring enough points to keep the lead in the championship heading into the next round in Australia – The Rally of Queensland.
