Championship finale to be held at Kent venue in October this year
The double-header final rounds of the Global Rallycross Championship will be held at Lydden Hill on October 27/28.
The Lydden circuit is set to be adapted to include a 70 foot table-top jump for the first GRC event held in Europe since 2013, when the series joined X Games events in Barcelona in Spain and Munich in Germany.
“I’m delighted to finally confirm Lydden Hill as the venue for the final round of the GRC,” said Lydden Hill boss Pat Doran. The GRC’s 12-round calendar was released last month, but didn’t disclose the venue of the European finale.
