Juan San Martin’s run to 10th overall on Rally Internacional de Curitiba
last week has earned the Uruguayan driver the second Subaru Individual Award of the 2010 season.
San Martin was the eighth four-wheel drive finisher home on the Brazilian
gravel event at the wheel of his Subaru Impreza WRX.
"I am very pleased to have finished the rally in such a good position
because it was not an easy rally due to the rain making some of the stages
quite difficult," said San Martin, who was co-driven by Martin Villete in
Curitiba.
San Martin joins Swiss Olivier Burri as a Subaru Individual Award recipient.
Burri secured the accolade for his performance on Rally Automobile
Monte-Carlo in January.
The Subaru Individual Award will be presented on each of the 12 IRC rounds
this year to the highest-placed Subaru finisher and demonstrates the support
that Subaru will extend to its customer drivers in the IRC in 2010.
