The Netherlands hosted the GTC Rally on July 12-14, round three of the FIA European Rally Trophy’s Benelux series. Local hero Bob de Jong, navigated by his Belgian codriver Bjorn Degandt, dominated the event from start to finish to claim his third win in his home rally with his Hyundai i20 R5, heading the Ford Fiesta R5 of his fellow compatriots Jasper Van Den Heuvel and Lisette Bakker by almost 3 minutes. Another Dutch crew, Roald Leemans and Chris Van Waardenburg, completed the podium with their Citroën DS3 R5, a further 37.8 seconds behind.
