Do we think sometime after this weekend’s RAC the BHRC will announce the 2025 calendar?
2025 Circuit of Ireland and Ulster Rally move to two-day format...

I can’t find it officially anywhere but ewrc has the 2025 BHRC season down as a 7-event calendar:

Seems like a good route, especially the late start on Saturday. I just hope they are a bit more adventurous with the Welsh stages next year. Would be nice to see stages such as Brechfa, Trawscoed, Margam or Rheola used for a change.
The South Wales forests haven't been used for years; all the events that used to use them have gone.....Rheola, Resolfen, Rhondda, Tyle, St Gwynno, Walters Arena, etc What is the saying, "Use them or lose them...."
The forests that are used will be those that NRW allow the organisers to use.
Those that haven't been used in a long time may have had permission revoked like the Coed-y-Brenin complex, Beddgelert & Drws-y-Nant in North Wales.
It sounds like many of the classic forest stages wont be available now even if by some miracle Wales Rally GB was to receive the funding to come back. :(
A tarmac event (Ceredigion) may be the only hope, which although great in itself, it wouldnt be the proper event we all love.
