ABRAM Racing Sits P2 in WRC3 at Acropolis Rally

Saturday at the EKO Acropolis Rally Delivers Grit and Promise for ABRAM Racing

The gravel roads of Greece had plenty of drama in store on Saturday, but ABRAM Racing navigated the chaos with composure, ending the day in second place in the WRC3 classification at the EKO Acropolis Rally.

The morning loop set the tone early. The crew felt comfortable from the first competitive kilometre, winning the Ghymno stage outright in WRC3. That result was no flash of fortune. Three subsequent stages each delivered a podium finish, pointing to a crew operating within a well-defined plan and sticking to it with discipline.

The rhythm was deliberate. Good pace, confident driving, and a conscious decision to avoid unnecessary risk defined the opening loop. For a crew managing the demands of a punishing Greek rally, those are not small virtues. Consistency on the Acropolis, a rally known for its jagged rocks and unforgiving surfaces, is often worth more than a single spectacular result.

The afternoon loop told a different story, though not one the crew could control. Both stages were interrupted by red flags, with several other crews encountering serious trouble on the road. The stoppages ultimately meant that neither of the afternoon tests could be completed. It was a frustrating conclusion to what had been a productive and measured day, but the crew took the positives where they could find them.

Sitting second in WRC3 heading into the final day is exactly where ABRAM Racing wanted to be. The position reflects not only the morning's pace but also the steadiness that carried them through an unpredictable afternoon without incident. When rival crews were pulling over and red flags were flying, staying out of trouble was itself an achievement.

The EKO Acropolis Rally has long been one of the most demanding events on the WRC calendar. The terrain punishes errors and rewards patience. A crew willing to drive within its limits, collect stage points, and manage its machinery tends to emerge better placed than one chasing every tenth. Saturday showed that ABRAM Racing understands that equation.

One day of competition remains. Sunday brings the final loop of the EKO Acropolis Rally and with it the last opportunity to defend, extend, or lose the second-place standing that Saturday's work secured. The pace shown in the morning suggests the crew has the tools to fight. The discipline shown in the afternoon suggests they have the judgment to use those tools wisely.

For ABRAM Racing, the finish line in Greece is now firmly in sight.
