STARS SET TO GATHER FOR CASTLE COMBE RALLYDAY
Host of title winners will headline the special event in Wiltshire
Three British Rally title winners will head the lineup at Saturday’s Castle Combe Rallyday.
Triple champion Matt Edwards, 2004 champion David Higgins and 1996 title winner Gwyndaf Evans will all be on hand as the Wiltshire race tracks celebrates the story of rallying. Sadly, Evans will not be bringing his historic-specification Ford Escort Mk2 as it was damaged in an accident on the recent
Rali Ceredigion.
Edwards, who took a hat-trick of titles in 2018, ’19 and ’21 is due to drive the Toyota Celica GT4 of Nicky Grist, the 1993 World Rally champion co-driver. Fans will have the chance to meet the stars as autograph sessions make a welcome return to the popular event. A full schedule of star guest interviews will run on the interview stage and give fans the opportunity to hear the guests talking about their rallying experiences.
There will be on-track action for most of the day, with the key attraction starting at lunch time when the pair of Legends
Stages run. One stage will centre on the pitlane, assembly area and Camp Corner while the second Legends Stage will run from the pitlane down to Quarry and out through the Esses. lSee our full preview, page 30
