It&#8217;s rallying an 8-minute lead reduced to nothing.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Patel\u2019s own rally nearly unraveled on Friday when power steering issues dropped him time, but he savoured some stage wins on&nbsp; Saturday\u2019s stages to stay in touch. When Vohra hit trouble in SS10, Patel assumed the lead and held it to the finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For Vohra, it is another cruel chapter in Uganda. He retired here last year and has yet to conquer the Ugandan terrain despite setting the pace across the last two editions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vohra nevertheless bounced back to claim maximum bonus points on the Shell V Power Stage, where he beat Karan to second.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Patel now clings to the top of the Africa Rally Championship log after a weekend of survival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reigning African Rally Champion Yasin Nasser and home driver came third overall, followed by Aakif Virani and Jasmeet Chana.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chana was all smiles.on his Uganda debut :<br>&nbsp;\u201cThe essence of this weekend was to drive with our heads, not to take too many risks<br>&nbsp;We would be better off, but we had power steering issues on Friday.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Charlie Lubega of Uganda has won this event three times, though not consecutively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Past winners of the Pearl of Africa Uganda Rally:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1996: Karim Hirji\/Frank Nekusa \u2013 Toyota Celica ST 185&nbsp;<br>1997: Chipper Adams\/Justin Beyendeza \u2013 Toyota Supra&nbsp;<br>1998: Charles Muhangi\/Steven Byaruhanga \u2013 Subaru Impreza&nbsp;<br>1999: Chipper Adams\/Justin Beyendeza \u2013 Toyota Supra&nbsp;<br>2000: Charlie Lubega\/Abed Musa \u2013 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo 4&nbsp;<br>2002: Johnny Gemmel\/Robert Paisley \u2013 Subaru Impreza WRX&nbsp;<br>2003: Charlie Lubega\/Abed Musa \u2013 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo 4&nbsp;<br>2004: Charlie Lubega\/Abed Musa \u2013 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo 4&nbsp;<br>2005: Riyaz Kurji\/Sayed Kadri \u2013 Subaru Impreza N10&nbsp;<br>2006: Riyaz Kurji\/Sayed Kadri \u2013 Subaru Impreza N8&nbsp;<br>2007: Conrad Rautenbach\/Peter Marsh \u2013 Subaru Impreza N10&nbsp;<br>2008: Jamie Whyte\/Phil Archenoul \u2013 Subaru Impreza N10&nbsp;<br>2009: Riyaz Kurji\/Sayed Kadri \u2013 Subaru Impreza N8&nbsp;<br>2010: Jamie Whyte\/Phil Archenoul \u2013 Subaru Impreza N10&nbsp;<br>2011: Ponsiano Lwakataka\/Musa Nsubuga \u2013 Subaru Impreza N8&nbsp;<br>2012: Mohammed Essa\/Greg Stead \u2013 Subaru Impreza N12&nbsp;<br>2013: Jas Mangat\/Gihan de Silva \u2013 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X&nbsp;<br>2014: Rajbir Rai\/Tim Challen \u2013 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X&nbsp;<br>2015: Jaspreet Singh Chatthe\/Craig Thorley \u2013 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X&nbsp;<br>2016: Hassan Alwi\/Enock Olinga \u2013 Subaru Impreza STi N14&nbsp;<br>2017: Manvir Singh Baryan\/Drew Sturrock \u2013 \u0160koda Fabia R5&nbsp;<br>2018: Manvir Singh Baryan\/Drew Sturrock \u2013 \u0160koda Fabia R5&nbsp;<br>2019: Manvir Singh Baryan\/Drew Sturrock \u2013 \u0160koda Fabia R5&nbsp;<br>2020: Cancelled due to COVID&nbsp;<br>2021: Cancelled due to COVID&nbsp;<br>2022: Jas Mangat\/Joseph Kamya \u2013 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X&nbsp;<br>2023: Jas Mangat\/Joseph Kamya&nbsp;<br>2024: Karan Patel\/Tauseef Khan \u2013 KEN\/KEN&nbsp;<br>2025: Karan Patel\/Tauseef Khan \u2013 KEN\/KEN&nbsp;<br>2026: Karan Patel\/Tauseef Khan \u2013 KEN\/KEN<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MBARARA, Uganda, May 9 &#8211; Karan Patel stormed to a third straight Pearl of Africa Uganda Rally victory on Sunday, becoming only the second driver in history to claim three back-to-back wins at the iconic event after countryman Manvir Baryan.
