A Dissapointing Debut For Our Drivers


It was yet another disappointing outing for Jamaludin-Rozita this time in their debut for the M5 Perodua Rally Team driving the 1.3 Perodua Myvi in Round 5 of the Malaysian Rally Championship at Johor Bahru, another home event for our drivers, which was held in conjunction with Round 6 of the Asian-Pacific Rally Championship.

It all started with a difficult Saturday leg where in heavy rain the Peroduoa Myvi struggled to adapt to the flooded SS5 stage and ended up against a tree with a faulty engine due to incapsulated water.

However the Perodua M5 Team mechanics did a great job in fixing the stricken car and get it ready for the final day's rallying, only for Jamaludin to ditch the car on SS11 after losing control of the Myvi, hitting a bump and then airborne into the ditch towatds the end of the stage. Both Jamaludin and Rozita escaped unhurt.
