McRae To Miss Australia As Recuperation Continues
Published: 18th October 2002
Having withdrawn the entry from Rally New Zealand to recover from a mountain biking accident prior to Sanremo, Alister travelled to western Australia to continue his recovery and prepare for the penultimate round of the 2002 FIA World Rally Championship. A further scan, as part of the recovery monitoring process, showed that his bruised liver is recovering well. However, the recovery is not sufficient enough for him to compete in Australia.
The Marlboro Mitsubishi Ralliart crews of Francois Delecour/Daniel
Grataloup and Jani Paasonen/Arto Kapanen will complete on
the event, as part of the original three-car entry.
