"The title race is still open. Today it was not our day, we had four punctures, a broken rear handle, a shock absorber and our Jake refused work," The 2015 Nile Special USPA rally driver of the year stated.

He added that we are left with three events and those are enough to change the table standings.

"I'm in fourth position with 165 points behind the table leader Mangat (300) and that can be over turned in two events," Blick said.
