Ken Block and Alex Gelsomino were on their third run over the Vale de Judeau (5.03 km) shakedown stage when the Ford Fiesta RS WRC clipped a rock and rolled several times over a bank.
A Monster World Rally Team spokesperson said: “Ken and Alex are 100 per cent fine. They went to hospital but it was a precaution because it’s better to be safe than sorry. Unfortunately when the car came back to service the scrutineer declared that it was too badly damaged and was a no-go.
“Ken is obviously disappointed and bummed out that he’s been unable to start the rally. It was his first big crash in a World Rally Car and Ken is obviously relieved that he and Alex are both okay. They’re heading back home now to prepare for their next stop on their world tour, Argentina WRC.”
