I was in the car running some errands, and I got a surprise when I heard the name Michele Mouton was bring interviewed. It's quite apt that this week in November there is rallying on BBC radio. (There was a time when the RAC Rally had hourly updates on Radio2/5/5Live.)
Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???

A good and bad day today.
20 years ago Richard Burns wins championship.
16 years ago loses his battle with brain tumour.

Do you guys follow any type of HillClimb competition? I have been watching that HillClimbMonsters channel on YouTube and I find awesome to see such a variety of cars racing against each other. It reminds me rally, but it looks more "open". Any tips of an official Championship for me to actually follow instead of just these clips?

That's the beauty of hillclimbing, you can see many "extreme" cars built by small privateers and a huge variety. The only international championship I'm aware of is the European Hillclimb Championship (many clips of HillClimbMonsters are taken from that) but I don't think there are ways to follow it apart from results and videos. Sometimes an organizer might stream the start on their Fb page or YT channel.

Thanks for the infos mate. Weird, it looks a "simple" championship to be broadcasted like the UCI MTB Downhill championship. With some clips from the "top20" plus the "top10" full run. It looks its normally just one stage. Way more simple than a rally Championship, eh? But anyway. Going to check this right now

I lived for years close to several hill climb tracks, one of them being a European championship (Ecce Homo) classic but to be honest I have never fell in love with it. In that area there were plenty of motorsports to see live every weekend from motorcross over go-karts or truck trial up to MotoGP. I used to visit motorcross and go-karts from time to time but only rally was the one I visited really regularly.
PS One of the craziest things you can see on hill climbs here from time to time is Buggyra with their trucks, both circuit or Dakar ones. Just check the link

According to Dirtfish readers, Skoda Octavia is the best WRC car of all time.

Tänak got 20 points closer to Evans, but as the main reason was a bad rally for Evans, I would say that Evans lost 20 points to Tänak, not Tänak gained. The point is, if the other one does not...
