In a recent questionnaire the event received the most 'yes’ votes to include it next year and this weekend has probably reinforced those thoughts. The combination of it being part of a high profile event, with excellent organisation, but retaining the friendly motor club atmosphere all go to make it such an enjoyable weekend. The organisers of the event have ex- pressly asked me to pass on their best wishes - "your guys are a pleasure to deal with - we never get any problem from them" was the comment made to me when we left Trophy Points Trophy Point are now handled by Simon Taylor so could you send your claim forms to him.

Among the key points covered by the new regulations are: • The National Court, appointed by the Motor Sports Council, will become the final tier of Appeal in all cases. • The Stewards of the Royal Automobile Club will be invited to sit on the National Court, and there will not be any additional level of appeal beyond the National Court in order to avoid uncer- tainty and delay. • The MSC National Court will exercise the functions of Disciplinary Tribunal, Investigatory Tri- bunal, Eligibility Appeal panel. • The MSA will appoint a 'Disciplinary Officer' to advise on disciplinary action in the respect of any breach of the regulations. • In an attempt to have more issues settled on the day of an event, the only grounds for lodging an appeal against the Stewards of the Meeting will be that a gross miscarriage of justice has oc- curred or that the penalty imposed is wholly inappropriate to the breach of regulations. • And to speed up the appeals process, the National Court will decide within ten days if an ap- peal meets either of these criteria and if so will arrange for the National Court to be convened. There will be no right of appeal to the National Court for third parties not involved in the original incident. The review was led by solicitor and F1 Steward Tony Scott -Andrews, Chairman of the MSA's Judi- cial Advisory Panel. "It has been a very interesting task," says Scott -Andrews. "There is no doubt that the previous system was not perfect, but in re -working it we have to ensure we are absolutely water -tight legally. I must thank everyone that has contributed to the review and the re -drafting." "I am delighted that the judicial review has been conducted so efficiently and I am grateful to Tony Scott -Andrews and his team for their efforts," confirms Colin Hilton, Chief Executive of the MSA. "In many areas this is a radical overhaul, but we now have a much more effective system which should make a big contribution to improving UK motor sport for participants, spectators and officials." The complete wording of the new regulations will be incorporated into the 2005 Blue Book, which will be available on -line at www.msauk.org .

  • The MICHELIN Pilot Sport H5 and S6 Ready for Rallye Deutschland's
    MEDIA INFORMATION 2019 FIA World Rally Championship Round 10/14: ADAC Rallye Deutschland The MICHELIN Pilot Sport H5 and S6 ready for Rallye Deutschland’s challenging cocktail of asphalt and concrete stages Although the majority of the rounds that make up the calendar of the 2019 FIA World Rally Championship take place on gravel, the year’s asphalt fixtures counts amongst the sport’s most iconic competitions, including the wintry Rallye Monte-Carlo and France’s Tour de Corse which, this year, was held at the end of March. This week, Round 10 takes competitors to Germany for the campaign’s third sealed-surface rally which is famous for its mix of asphalt and abrasive concrete roads that pose an additional challenge for tyres. The stages themselves vary from narrow vineyard lanes and tracks over army ranges which features numerous changes of surface, to smoother, fast, flowing country roads. Rain is frequently a factor that the teams and crews need to take into account. Although the overall length of the 2019 Rallye Deutschland has been shortened slightly from 1,221.89 to 1,160.35 kilometres compared with 12 months ago, the total competitive distance has increased from 325.76km to 343.95km, while the menu includes 19 special stages instead of 18. As in 2018, the service park is based on the shores of Bostalsee Lake, around 60km south of Trier. For the first time, the wooded recreational park will also host the official start ceremony on Thursday evening. Friday’s programme comprises two attempts at a loop of narrow stages through the vineyards of the nearby Mosel Valley, plus two visits to a very tricky super-special in Wadern-Weiskirchen.

  • Newsletter N O 3 October 2020
    Dear Rally family, dear friends, Welcome to issue six of the FIA Rally Newsletter, which we are pleased to send out following last week’s online meeting of the FIA World Motor Sport Council on October 9, 2020. Inside are details of the new eighth and final round of this year’s FIA World Rally Championship, the planned calendar for the 2021 WRC, plus an update on some of the recent regulation changes. From a Regional Rally perspective, we are happy that the FIA Middle East Rally Championship title will be awarded in 2020 following a change to the points-scoring system. We are also humbled by the efforts of the Rally of Lebanon organisers to keep moving ahead with their event in November, despite the devastating explosion in Beirut in August and the suffering and disruption that it has caused. Continuing the Regional Rally theme, we are enthused by the progress of Rally3 with the first car, a Ford Fiesta Rally3 from M-Sport Poland, coming to life during a summer of test and development. An update on the work undertaken by the Rally Safety Task Force and how it helped with the successful running of three events in Croatia, San Marino and Portugal can be found in this edition. Everyone in the Rally Department is very proud that the Sporting Regulations for FIA Rally Star have been approved with momentum really building up following the publication of a detailed set of guidelines to help ASNs around the world organise the initial talent detection events. FIA Rally Star will help to uncover and nurture future world champions by encouraging mass participation in the sport at grassroots level.

European champions Esapekka Lappi/Janne Ferm (FIN/FIN) got the first three stage best times on Saturday on the new rally car's first start in the FIA World Rally Championship (WRC). Going into the final day, this sees "Flying Finn" Lappi in second place in the overall standings, directly ahead of the second ŠKODA team Pontus Tidemand/Emil Axelsson (S/S). "We are delighted with how the WRC debut in the new Fabia R5 is developing for us so far. But our main aim is to finish the rally," said ŠKODA Motorsport Director Michal Hrabánek. On the hardest day of the Rally de Portugal with 165.40 kilometres scheduled, on the winding gravel tracks around Porto, the high-tech four-wheel drive showed how much potential it has. Right on the first stage, Baião 1, Lappi got the historic first WRC best time in the new ŠKODA Fabia R5, 4.2 seconds faster than his team-mate Tidemand. "Yesterday we had stones, today sand; the conditions were totally different to Friday.

  • Rally Estonia
    MEDIA INFORMATION 2020 FIA World Rally Championship Round 4: Rally Estonia MICHELIN ready for action as the 2020 WRC campaign resumes with a new-look final run-in After an interruption of practically five months since March’s Rally Mexico which was itself shortened slightly as the Covid-19 pandemic took a grip, the 2020 FIA World Rally Championship fires back up this weekend in Estonia. Included for the first time as part of the WRC calendar, Rally Estonia did not feature on the initial 2020 schedule. However, tightening travel restrictions have led the series’ organisers to focus on European venues and postpone the longer-haul fixtures until next season. After the year’s wintry openers, namely Rallye Monte-Carlo and Rally Sweden, Mexico was the first of the championship’s initially-planned gravel events, which means Rally Estonia will be the second loose-surface round of the campaign. Having emerged as the Baltic States’ biggest motorsport event since it was first organised in 2010, the rally is reputed above all for its fast stages and jumps, yet it also includes a number of technical forest roads that range from narrow to wide. The defending world champion Ott Tänak will obviously be keen to post a top performance on home soil in his Hyundai i20 Coupe WRC which is equipped with Michelin tyres, as are all the cars of the sport’s stars who are eager to get behind the wheel in anger for the first time since mid-March. For sanitary reasons, Rally Estonia will run to a compact format, with the weekend’s 17 stages (11 on Saturday, September 5, plus six on Sunday) totalling just 232.64 kilometres.

From the first-generation model and through to Evolution VI "Tommi Makinen Edition" introduced in 2000, the Lancer Evolution series has offered the highest levels of practical performance, driveability, reliability and durability. Over the years, the series has benefited from incorporation of improvements fuelled by feedback from MMC's active and highly successful participation in motor sports. These improvements have driven the on-going "evolution"of the series as an ultra-performance 4-wheel drive sedan with a strong sports-oriented personality; as a fitting base model for an successful competitor in world class motor sports events.
