Singh confirms Queensland entry


Multiple FIA Asia-Pacific Rally champion Karamjit Singh has confirmed that he will enter the International Rally of Queensland this weekend and could complete the APRC season.

Singh, who won the APRC title in 2001, 2002 and 2004 will drive a privately entered Proton Satria with Indian co-driver Vivek Ponnusamy and will receive technical support from CUSCO.

The event will mark Singh’s first return to the APRC series in six years and, despite having missed the opening round in Malaysia, the veteran is hoping to contest the remaining four rounds after Queensland.

“I’m very happy to be able to rally at one of the APRC rounds this year,” said Singh. “My aim is to be challenging for wins right from the first race.”
