Motorsport UK Asphalt Championsh­ip reveals unchanged calendar

-

The Motorsport UK, formerly the MSA, Asphalt Rally Championsh­ip has revealed an unchanged calendar for 2019, with the series electing not to include Rally Tendring and Clacton in the event’s second season.

The series will visit Epynt twice, Northern Ireland, Belgium and Otterburn this year, while despite being in preliminar­y talks with the event organiser, the series has elected to stick with the Isle of Man rather than include the Tendring event. Both run in close proximity.

“After the Asphalt Rally Championsh­ip took a sabbatical in 2017, we could not have hoped for a stronger and more healthier return in 2018,” said BTRDA president Mike Broad.

“With 116 registered competitor­s for the series and the overall and many of the class titles going down to an exciting final round, 2018 really was a fantastic year for the series.

“Our aim is to build on that success by listening to feedback we’ve received and creating a 2019 championsh­ip that continues to develop.”
