The Promoter appears to command that the rally cant stay in Wales permanently and needs to move to different parts of the UK, presumably to generate greater interest and new fans.
It seems a case of 'needs must' for Rally GB going to NI as the first move, as this is the only other area with the big interest in rallying and people willing and able to make it happen.
After watching thrilling rallying on the island of Ireland for decades I for one will be happy to see a WRC event on their fantastic roads (Finland on tarmac) whether it be as Rally GB or Rally Ulster.#M-SPORTER

About Ireland, I can't see how you can let the numerous spectators have a good view of the action and meet the FIA safety standards. Those hedges all people are standing behind don't stop anything...

110% it is going to be tarmac - if it is indeed in NI.
A shame it seems there will be no Penmachno.....And if they want a proper sting in the tail, how about linking Alwen & Brenig, as seen on RallyGB in 2018? Might need a road closure, which is why it...
