Ken Mukosa is Zambia Rally Champion

Share

Ken Mukosa has won the 2013 Zambia Rally title with one rally to spare after clinching the Sable Rally in Chisamba on Sunday.

Three straight wins coupled with a third place finish on the first day of the season and second place national points on the Puma Rally was enough for Mukosa to claim his maiden Zambia Rally title with an unassailable 54 points.

The Monze based driver took the laurels after bringing home his Subaru Impreza N8 two minutes 30 seconds quicker than Farook Ticklay who placed second in a Ticklay Motorsport Subaru N10.

“Another victory for Team Kenneth. To all my fans, my sponsors, my service crew and everyone one around, I would like to say thanks for the support,” Mukosa said.

“To all my fellow drivers, Farook, Geoffrey, Yazdaan, Azim, Toofail, Shabbir and Chimanga, thanks for the competition. Looking forward to seeing all the drivers in Monze next month,” he added.

Ashish Patel was the only casualty from the rally after encountering mechanical problems on his Action Auto Subaru GC8.
