Up against increased competition from all over the world, Irish regular Callum Devine withstood the pressure from all quarters to record a third successive Donegal International Rally win.
The Škoda Fabia RS Rally2 pilot, co-driven by Noel O’Sullivan, was victorious by 20.5 seconds over the Toyota GR Yaris Rally2 of Meirion Evans / Ger Conway, while M-Sport’s Jon Armstrong / Shane Byrne retired from third place on the final stage.
Armstrong’s demise allowed David Kelly to take the final podium place in his Volkswagen after a big battle with two-time Tarmac champion Josh Moffett – the top three remarkably exactly the same as 12 months ago.
Hayden Paddon was as high as second after the first day alongside co-driver David Moynihan, but his maiden trip to Ireland ended in a soft roll on Saturday afternoon and the second pass of the famed Knockalla test.
Aaron McIntyre & Derry Long took Modified section in the Toyota Starlet which was the lads first time doing the Donegal International.
Kyle McBride & Darragh Mullen secured their second Stellantis Motorsport Rally Cup IRE & UK victory of 2025 with a dominant display at the Donegal International Rally in the 208 at the Rally 4 Cetegory.
