Canada - 2017 Production 4WD champions 'Crazy Leo' Urlichich and co-driver Alex Kihurani rolled their rally car into a snowbank, then kept on going to win the class and finish 2nd overall in the race. 

The pair raced in the 2018 Rallye Perce-Neige Maniwaki event and won the most stages, outpacing not only all other production cars, but even Open Class rally vehicles. 

Set-up problems

The crash was caused by a setup problem, which caused snap over-steer on corner entries. Before the accident you can see Leo struggling to keep the car straight in braking zones and on turn-ins.
