SEMENUK: OREGON RETIREMENT WILL MAKE SUBARU STRONGER

Ricardo Cordero’s Oregon Trail Rally win blew a breath of fresh air through the ARA National Championship last weekend – but it might come at a cost with the series’ dominant force Brandon Semenuk admitting his early retirement gave him the opportunity to learn more about making his Subaru WRX even faster.

Both factory Subarus were eliminated by the same rock on the fourth round of the American series, opening the door for Citroën C3 Rally2 man Cordero to become the first non-WRX driver since Ken Block’s 2022 STPR success.
