Killarney to the Caribbean: The Barbados Rally Club has highlighted the significant impact of training provided by Killarney’s former World Rally Championship co-driver Paul Nagle as a cornerstone of its ongoing safety improvements. Speaking at the club’s Annual General Meeting on January 30, Chairman Neil Corbin credited the Kerry man with raising the standards of marshalling and official response following a landmark year for the sport on the island.

The training programme led by Nagle took place last February and combined intensive theory with practical scenario-based sessions. These modules were designed to better equip local officials and marshals for the complexities of modern rallying. Corbin noted that the impact of this work was clearly evident throughout the record-breaking 2025 season, providing a structured foundation for the club as it prepares for its 70th anniversary in 2027.
