Sensational PWRC Win for Lambros!
 

Lambros Athanassoulas and Nikos Zakheos chased their dream driving a Skoda Fabia S2000 and made it true!

They hadn't driven a racing car since 2008 Acropolis Rally and till just a few days before this year's event. Nevertheless, they stood up against their opponents, the PWRC's best crews. Scoring top times from the start, they made no mistakes driving under pressure and they made it to the top by the end of Day 1. They faced bad luck in Day 2, when a problem at the electrics of the engine cost them some time, but they attacked during Day 3 and scored a clear victory over the Championship leader, Nasser Al-Attiyah, who was in need of title points, so as to increase his lead from Armindo Araujo

Lambros commented at the Press conference:

It was a really difficult battle on the third day. We started eight seconds back from Nasser [Al-Attiyah] in the morning. This was because we had an electrical problem on the second day. It was very tense. We pushed a lot. We don't have such experience of fighting with the World Champion. We are very happy, that's why we were so emotional - it's our first win.

and commented about a full PWRC programm:

That would be perfect in a perfect world. We know it's very hard to follow the whole PWRC. What you need is a big sponsor. This is something hard for Greek drivers. It would be a dream to follow the whole Championship, maybe someone here would like to help us now we have won the Acropolis!
