    It is strange to suddenly appear but it may be so they can get a round of the BRC in asap in case others are lost down the line.

    Rally Monza in the WRC may also have set a kind of precedent...

    I think it makes a lot of sense. The NH Stages had a great entry (including a fair few BRC regulars) before it got postponed. I think entrants are gagging to enter any kind of event - and from a PR perspective they can say they are being innovative. It can be a glorified shakedown for many.

    Maybe it's planting a few seeds for a 2023 WRC event around Silverstone * vomits *

    Well, Silverstone already has F1 & MotoGP, why not the UK round of the WRC?? And I'm being half serious.....(it wouldn't be the biggest surprise).

    Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???

    1/2 I dont think the question is how fitting or otherwise the event is for BRC. We need to get rallying going in some form asap. In the current dire situation there are not an abundance of events to go and do so we need to make the most of it for now.

    2/2 I find the thought of another 6 months doing nothing and watching the sport drift further away far less appealing than doing an event at a race track. Can we just be positive about a rally happening?

    Non-elite events at Oulton Park are allowing spectators from 17th April, so in theory this should be no different - but does the addition of the BRC push it into the elite category?

    If it doesn't, then I'd expect spectator capacity to be capped at 4000 as per Government Step 3 guidelines. For the BTCC round at Snetterton in June, season pass holders have been asked to indicate if they'll be attending so that MSV know how many tickets they can put on general sale. This may be sufficiently popular that they take the same approach.

    “The second leg of the British Championships”

    “Former British Rally Champion Damian Cole...”

    It’s quite funny reading rally stories written/edited by someone who clearly knows nothing about the subject
