All-change for ERC ace Lukyanuk

The Colin McRae ERC Flat Out Trophy of the Year winner will drive an N5-specification Suzuki Swift for Arvidal Racing on Rallye de Tierra de Astorga from 15-16 December.

And with regular co-driver Alexey Arnautov unavailable for the Spanish event, Russian Lukyanuk has recruited Hugo Magalhães, who partnered fellow Portuguese Bruno Magalhães to the runner-up spot in this year’s ERC.

Meanwhile, the Swift wasn’t the only new car Lukyanuk has tried out of late: last week he tested a Hyundai i20 R5.
