ALIYYAH KOLOC saves best for last with fifth at Yecheng Rally

October 26, 2026

• ALIYYAH KOLOC and co-driver Marcin Pasek finished fifth overall from 24 classified crews at the Yecheng Rally, the strongest result of Buggyra ZM Racing’s three-event China campaign.
• The 22-year-old Czech driver was the highest-placed woman and best foreign crew finisher, recovering from an 18th-place prologue to climb steadily through the field across five stages.
• The campaign covered three rallies in 25 days across Inner Mongolia, Gansu and Xinjiang — a first for the team — logging over 1,700 competitive kilometres in demanding desert terrain.
• ALIYYAH was top woman in all three events: Trans-Kubuqi (24th in T1+), Dunhuang (26th in T1+ before a mechanical), and Yecheng (fifth overall), demonstrating consistent pace in a JJ Sport-supported JJ3 car.
• Attention now turns to Qatar, where ALIYYAH will co-drive the turbo Red-Lined Revo GTR alongside father Martin Koloc racing separately — facing Dakar legend Nasser Al-Attiyah.
