Csomos and Nagy had started the competition strongly, sitting in third place after the second special stage of the tarmac rally.
However, their fortunes took a turn for the worse on the third stage. Csomos took a left-hand bend too wide, and ultimately, the Skoda Fabia Rally2 car crashed front-first into the wall of a stone house.
Fortunately, Csomos and Nagy escaped the accident without serious injuries. They were able to leave the car by themselves but were taken to the hospital as a precaution for further examinations.
Watch the compilation video below, which begins with Csomos’s crash.
Csomos has had a streak of bad luck at the Rally Islas Canarias. Last year, he also had to withdraw due to a severe crash. Then too, the front of the Skoda was severely damaged.
