The FIA World Rallycross Championship touched down in Riga last weekend for its penultimate round of the 2019 season - the last on European soil - and another instalment of the relentless battle for the championship honours.
Monster Energy RX Cartel’s Andreas Bakkerud entered the weekend with a two point lead over year-long rival Timmy Hansen. And following an action packed two-days of racing; which saw the Norwegian take the top qualifier spot, a semi-final win, and a third-place podium, Bakkerud still only has a point separating him from his Swedish rival.
