MASSIVE ROUTE BOOST FOR ROGER ALBERT CLARK EVENT IN 2021
Confirmed outline route to use new stages for Wales-focused rally classic
Up to 40% of the total competitive route of the
2021 Roger Albert Clark Rally will run in Wales, some of it on special stages never before used in the event’s previous 13 editions.
After three days in the north of England and southern Scotland, the epic five-day rally will move to Wales for Sunday and Monday,
November 28-29, and the outline route for Wales has been confirmed to help intending competitors plan logistics and accommodation.
The third leg will finish in Carlisle on Saturday evening. Crews will then head to Welshpool where the rally will restart at midday on Sunday for 70 stage miles over world-class forest stages with service in Dolgellau and the end of the leg in
Machynlleth on Sunday evening.
The final day of the rally will restart from the Epynt ranges on Monday morning for the concluding 60 stage miles. Exact details of the special stages to be used will be confirmed shortly but what is certain is that this year’s Welsh leg will be the biggest so far for this incredible event.
Rally manager Colin Heppenstall said: “We have had many, many enquiries from prospective competitors who are keen to book accommodation in good time. We hope that this information will allow them to continue their planning. The rally will overnight on Saturday in Welshpool and on Sunday night crews will have the option of staying anywhere between Machynlleth and Epynt. This will help spread out the demand for accommodation in an area with few major hotels.”
