Max McRae notched up a maiden win in the European Rally Championship after taking out the Junior ERC class at the Rally Hungary 2024 season opener.
McRae, the son of 1995 British Rally Championship title-winner Alister and nephew of the late 1995 World Rally champion Colin, scored a first ERC victory of sorts for the famous McRae dynasty since Alister’s triumph in the 1996 Rally of Wales. Max, driving a Tagai Racing Technology-run Peugeot 208 Rally4 car, alongside co-driver Cameron Fair, won the Junior ERC class by a margin of 1m40.6s from the Ford Fiesta pairing Jaspar Vaher and Sander Pruul.
“This definitely wasn’t the sort of event to drive flat out everywhere. It was about being more strategic with both your attack and the use of the tyres. “Cam and I worked really hard after the recce, we came up with a plan for Saturday and it worked; we wanted to get through the first morning on one set of tyres and that was a key factor. “I honestly feel like this result has lifted a weight from my shoulders. There’s nothing to prove anymore.
