Jon Armstrong has talked DirtFish through his Rally Portugal accident 600 meters onto Saturday afternoon’s first stage. The M-Sport driver had been 10th overall, fighting back into the points on Saturday morning after losing his power steering on Friday afternoon. But he rolled on SS15 of 23, nudging a bank with the rear of his Puma Rally1 which tipped it into a roll. “I really enjoyed the first pass of the stage, so I was trying to keep a good rhythm and see what we could do on the second pass,” Armstrong told DirtFish, “but maybe slightly underestimated the grip levels from basically the weather change, but also the slower cars that have gone through, the tracks are a bit loose. “So when we came through this left into right over a small crest, just the rear stepped out quite quickly and then touched the bank and put the car into a roll on the road.
