Punctures hamper Abdullah's progress in Saudi Rally

JEDDAH: Oman's Abdullah al Rawahi overcame a series of punctures to hold sixth position after the opening three stages of the new Jeddah-based Rally Saudi Arabia on Friday. The opening Buraiman stage of 14.02km was cancelled on safety grounds but the Oman Rally Team driver teamed up with Great Britain's Ross Whittock in an Autotek Skoda Fabia RS and was third quickest on the second stage behind Qatar's Nasser Saleh al Attiyah and Finland's Juho Hanninen. But a series of punctures followed soon afterwards on the demanding terrain and the Omani slipped to sixth place at the midday return to Jeddah for a service and regroup on the third round of the 2025 FIA Middle East Rally Championship. Al Rawahi said: 'We had a puncture. The first stage was cancelled and the second stage we were pushing, the pace was good and I was happy with the car. At the end of the stage, maybe three kilometres to go, we hit a rock and bent the rim. I thought it was a puncture. I lost focus a bit and we lost time. 'The third stage, we were pushing and we hit a rock after 5km and we had to change the puncture immediately. We lost a lot of time because it was very narrow and soft and we had to find a place to stop and change the wheel. Then we had a puncture at the end of the stage but we were happy to make the end of the loop.' The re-run of the Buraiman special in the afternoon was also cancelled and that left just repeat runs of the Wadi Al Matwi and Um Al Jerem stages to negotiate in punishing heat late on Friday afternoon. The Oman Rally Team has received vital backing from Al Manar Investments, the Oman Automobile Association, WMS, Zamakan, OQ, Strike, Size, the Minister of Culture, Sports and Youth and National Finance. Saturday's stages head north and centre on two runs through the Al Ghulal, Asfan and Thahban stages. The second pass through Thahban also acts as the event's Power Stage of 9.34km. 2025 Rally Saudi Arabia – positions after SS3: 1.
