The World Rally Championship title contender is eyeing a national rally outing in the Rally1 car
World Rally Championship points leader Thierry Neuville is keen for a national rally outing or extra seat time to help prepare for upcoming fast gravel rallies in Latvia and Finland. Neuville revealed his desire for more time behind the wheel of his Rally1 i20 N after his points lead over Toyota's Elfyn Evans decreased from 18 to 15 points during a frustrating Rally Poland last week.
' With testing restricted to 21 days per manufacturer across a year, Neuville is seeking opportunities for more outings behind the wheel.
