GRRL! SUMMARY:

  • ALIYYAH KOLOC and co-driver Marcin Pasek qualified in the top five after the prologue, just 0.6 seconds behind her father Martin in the Ultimate category.
  • Navigation penalties in Stage 1 cost the pair over 19 minutes — two missed waypoints early on and a brutal 15-minute penalty near km 158.
  • ALIYYAH was running top-four overall pace at the km-80 split of the final stage when a clutch failure ended her challenge, leaving her classified eighth.
  • Despite the result, ALIYYAH acknowledged her father’s strong fourth-place finish and pointed to genuine pace as evidence the team can compete at the front.
