Appreciate that not all those R5/Rally 2 cars are necessarily the latest versions however when you compare that entry to say the 2 litre WRC era then its hard to deny that the current level/standard of machinery competing at this level is at an all time high.

Nice entry, looking forward to making the trip this weekend... one thing, I can't really find any spectator info beside the town centre stage. Is it an old school case of park up, walk in and find a spot? I've not even really seen anything to dissuade spectators or to try and corral us into a few spots for this one, which makes me think I'm missing something.

There don't appear to be any designated spectator areas from my quick look, but don't forget that it's illegal to drive, ride, walk or stand on a closed road so you aren't going to be able to wander along a stage until you get to a good bit unless you try your luck in the fields.

With the first round of the Asphalt championship taking place this weekend at the East Riding Stages, M-Sport is pleased to announce that it will again provide the ultimate prize to one lucky winner !

The top-placed Ford driver at the end of the season will earn a private test drive in a Ford Puma Rally1 on M-Sport’s Evaluation Centre test track, plus a full systems check and shakedown if they are driving a Fiesta Rally2.

I mean, they've published detailed maps and there's nothing anywhere saying "don't go to the stages" so I assume they're fair game to park on a side road and walk to the junctions/fields.

The spectator guide says "We ask rally spectators heading to watch on the other [non Beverley town centre] stages to please obey any instructions given by the or officials."

So I'm planning to park in a non-access road and go for a walk in. Last year's North West stages had all sorts of pleas for folk to only use the awful, cramped paid areas - this one seems more relaxed, hence my surprise.

Previous years havent been as restrictive as say the Ceredigion/NW Stages however with the BRC being part of the mix then am expecting things to tighten up and hope that the increased publicity doesnt bring the organisers more headaches. If you have the right maps, exercise common sense and work with the officials then you should be fine.

I think they are looking at increasing the mileage/stages next year so will be interested to learn what new locations might come into the mix.

I hope so, didn’t someone say on here a while back that the organisers had ambitions for (eventually) the ERC? I think they’ve done the right thing in keeping to a sensible level of stage mileage and keeping it consistent for the first few years and not relying on thrice run stages like NW/Three Shires.

Ceredigion went from 70km up to 180km in a few short years but that’s an exceptional example.
