McGARRITY ALL THE WAY
After a faultless drive which saw him lead the event from start to finish, Derek McGarrity, with co-driver, Dermot O'Gorman, won the 2004 Ordnance Survey Ireland Rally of the Lakes. It was the reigning Irish Tarmac Champion's first victory on the Killarney rally and the dominant performance puts the Glengormley driver top of the Pirelli Championship points table.

Full Results and Stage Times

On a weekend when the wheel of fortune appeared to rotate in alternate directions, Andrew Nesbitt and James O'Brien, in their Cuisine de France/Subaru Ireland Impreza WRC, took their first victory on the International Rally of the Lakes.

Derek McGarrity and Chris Patterson initially headed the field, but Nesbitt and O'Brien then upped the ante, and took over the lead on stage three. They then led the rally for much of the Saturday stages, before losing two minutes with a driveshaft problem. This left them in fourth place overall, more than a minute behind the overnight leaders, McGarrity and Patterson. Nesbitt and O'Brien fought back to second on Sunday morning, and regained the lead when McGarrity and Patterson broke a wheel on stage 13. Eamonn Boland and Damien Morrissey finished the rally in second place, 1 minute, 23 seconds behind the winners.
