2008 Irc Provisional Calendar
The 2008 provisional IRC calendar looks like this:
• 21-23 March (Kenya) Safari Rally (g)
• 09-10 May (Portugal) Rally Portugal (g)
• 27-28 June (Belgium) Ypres Westhoek Rally (a)
• 11-12 July (Russia) Rally Russia (g)
• 01-02 August (Portugal) Rally Vinho di Madeira (a)
• 22-23 August (Czech Rep.) Barum Rally Zlin (a)
• 12-13 September (Spain) Principe de Asturias Rally (a)
• 25 -27 September (Italy) Rally Sanremo (a)
• 24-25 October (Switzerland) Rally du Valais (a)
• 7-9 November (China) Rally China (g)
What do you think about it, any rally you would like to see added on ?
Is 6 Asfalt and 4 gravel events the right mix, or should that change. Do we need a Snow-Rally on the IRC calendar ?

There were rumors that the snow-rally candidate to enter the IRC is the Arctic Rally. Perhaps in 2009 ...

It's an event, that has media support and coverage by Eurosport, but doesn't belong to IRC series. It's brand new model, that will begin in 2008.

And at all of these events will be run "BF Goodrich Challenge" - any crews using BFG tyres can match points in this miniseries.

Is this described somewhere, how events can apply to become one and so on ?
Keep It Simple Stupid !
Just focus on 27. Full focus. No new manufacturers will come before then, and no new ones will come if clear new regs aren't settled for 2027 by the end of the year (latest first few months on 2025)....
