    Devine thanks MRF for selecting him for the rally.

    Edit
    I hear Ingram is planning for WRC2 in 2026 and doesn't want to swap tyres, cars and teams he wont be using next year. He wants consistency to build back his trust and confidence.

    tbf we knew the entry list would be 'poor'. but cool to see miko, mabelini there. i thought they'd also skip that one and jon would be able to close the gap a little bit more hehe

    i wonder if rally scandinavia and uk swap dates if more people would come to compete. sweden is also pretty far for the mainlanders but they all go. prestige? more budget at the start of the season?
    or uk is just becoming 'too distant' anyway for the mainlanders? (not sure this is a pejorative term, in my language it is not, sorry if it is in english, fellas)

    The same curse that the Manx used to suffer from being towards the end of the season however now made worse by increased costs and red tape for mainland Europeans to come to our little island

    Adrian Rzeznik (ERC3 driver) said that Rali Ceredigion is so expensive that he decided to skip it, attend a non ERC rally instead and then come back to ERC in Croatia.

    Look at which major series still come to the UK; F1 & MotoGP.......a lot of the others no longer bother, possibly because of too much 'red tape'. Saying that, MXGP, EnduroGP & Hard Enduro still have rounds in the UK, the latter both in Wales.

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

    the fim world super enduro have a round in newcastle since last year or so (maybe 23? idk), but because the current top riders - billy bolt, jonny walker, the brightmore brothers, will hoare and others - are all brits.
