After having covered more than 1,700 miles with little incident, aside from an overheating issue in Zanesville, Ohio, that ate up several hours, the car driven by Australians Rod Wade and Michael Flanders suffered a broken crankshaft.

The small car 'B' segment accounts for more than 35% of the European market and is expected to grow by 17% over the next ten years.
