Kevin Hansen takes maiden victory in Abu Dhabi
Kevin Hansen recorded a maiden World RX victory in #abudhabi – in a dramatic opening round of the 2019 FIA World #rallycross Championship presented by Monster Energy – under the bright lights of Yas Marina Circuit.
In a weekend largely dominated by the Team Hansen MJP Peugeot 208s – for a variety of reasons – Kevin took the honours after original race victor Niclas Gronholm was handed a three-second penalty for a coming together with Hansen in his GRX Taneco Hyundai i20.
Over two days of action in daytime temperatures which touched 40 degrees C, the purpose-built 1.2-km Yas Marina #rallycross Circuit, provided plenty of close combat.
Earlier in the day #kevinhansen had topped the order after an eventful qualifying round. His elder brother Timmy, who had dominated day one in the sister Team Hansen MJP car had a big impact with the Monster Energy RX Cartel Audi S1 of Andreas Bakkerud in Q3 at the entry to turn one.
