London-based Killarney co-driver Shane Buckley and his Waterford driver Andrew Purcell have placed an entry for the Rali Bae Ceredigion in Mid-Wales this weekend.
The British Rally Championship event is the fifth of seven rounds and several Irish crews – including many representing the Motorsport Ireland Rally Academy – are entered in the two-day closed road event.
They will debut a newly acquired Volkswagen Polo Rally 2 at the rally and are the 12th seed for the event.
Rali Bae Ceredigion kicks off on Friday night with a ceremonial start on Aberystwyth’s seafront.
The stage action starts on Saturday morning with a loop of three challenging closed road stages, followed by a lunchtime service halt in Aberystwyth, then a repeat of the three stages in the afternoon. On Saturday evening, there will be two runs through the Aberystwyth town centre stage.
Sunday brings more closed road stages, a loop of three in the morning, followed by a lunchtime service halt, then the same three stages repeated in the afternoon, after which the ceremonial finish will take place on the promenade in Aberystwyth.
Just as newspapers and magazines are paid for, digital editorial content will also have to be paid for.
