The British Rally Championship is a rallying series run over the course of a year, that comprises six tarmac and gravel surface events.[1] 2025 is to be the 67th season of the series. The season will commence in Yorkshire on 23 February and is due to conclude on 25 October in the Welsh forests.
Calendar
[edit]For season 2025 there will be six events, three on gravel and three on closed road tarmac surfaces.[2]
In mid-January 2025 the organisers announced the cancellation of the second round of the series, the Severn Valley Stages which was originally scheduled for 12 April 2025. Natural Resources Wales had confirmed to the organisers that due to extensive storm damage, many parts of the forestry estate were inaccessible.[3] Championship organisers will provide further information as it develops.
Jim Clark Rally On 24 May during the Jim Clark Rally based in Duns, a tragic accident involving a competing car resulted in the death of the co-driver. As a result the event was abandoned. [4]
