Paul Nagle takes full-time WRC safety role
Killarney co-driver Paul Nagle will take on the FIA World Rally Championship Safety Delegate role on a full-time basis for the 2027 season.
Nagle worked on a part-time basis throughout 2026, covering half of the championship calendar alongside his existing commitments. Following a successful transition into the organisation side of the sport, the five-time WRC event winner will now oversee route safety, stage inspections, and competitor protocols across all rounds of the global series next year.
His expanded full-time campaign will begin in January under the sport’s new technical regulations at Rallye Monte-Carlo.
Alongside his international commitments, Nagle remains closely tied to home turf, serving as Clerk of the Course for Kerry Motor Club’s 30th anniversary Killarney Historic Rally.
Just as newspapers and magazines are paid for, digital editorial content will also have to be paid for.
