The brilliant 2012 sports season of Australian rally driver Molly Taylor and her British co-driver Seb Marshall has just ended, with yet another strong performance at Wales Rally GB on board the Citroen DS3 R3T with the United Business livery.

At the finish in Cardiff, after a race which saw them win stages, occupy the leadership and stand out in their class battling with fast and more experienced drivers, the crew received two important awards: Molly won the Richard Burns Trophy and Seb was awarded the Michael Park Trophy as the best British non-priority drivers.

"I cannot believe the 2012 season is over already. It went so quickly,” Molly says.

“Earlier this year I did not know what we would able to do this year and then came the opportunity to work with United Business. I was offered the DS3 R3 with the assistance of BP Racing. I had a serious programme, with tests  and international events – a dream come true. For me it was a big step forward and a steep learning curve, and I am pleased with the progress we made.

“Pier Liberali of United Business, the company that takes care of my sports management, was present at Wales Rally GB and we started our planning for 2013. This year, Vittorio Caneva and Fabrizia Pons have been invaluable to me. Their advice and support helped me a lot and I look forward to working with them again in 2013. Their friendship and teachings are very important to me".

Co-driver Seb Marshall says its has been a short but very rewarding year, doing some of his favourite rallies.

“Both Molly and I very much liked working with United Business. They are very professional and determined. BP Racing, which took care of our car, is made up of great people, with great technical knowledge. They’re enthusiastic and indefatigable! Molly drove brilliantly this year while maintaining an incredible desire to succeed. Now we look to 2013, hoping for another exciting year of rallying."

United Business has almost completed planning the 2013 season for Molly and Seb.  The aim is to capitalise on the experience gained in 2012 and continue the growth process of the Australian driver, who this year has impressed all the insiders with the determination and speed she has shown.

The programme will be announced by the end of October.
