Rumours of ERC status have been quashed
The Ulster Rally will move to the County Antrim area for 2018, although it will not form part of the European Rally Championship as reported by some local media.
The event – which is a round of the British and Irish Tarmac Rally Championships and FIA Celtic Rally Trophy – has been based in Londonderry for the past two seasons, and will now move into a congested location for rallies next season. The Ulster Automobile Club will run its Easter Stages Rally in the area.
“It’s time for us to move again, it’s part of the history of the rally,” said event director Robert Harkness. “I’m not sure people appreciated the stages in the Sperrins [near Londonderry], yet they were always taken as good stages before this last couple of years, but the weather was better [previously]. A lot of people were fed up with the stages.”
