£20 – £99
Dayinsure Wales Rally GB is a stage rally motor sport event and this year is the 12th and final European round of the World Rally Championship. The event takes place over three days of competition and each day is divided into a number of ‘Special Stages’ which are when the drivers race against the clock for the fastest time. For the rest of the event they have to follow a pre-set schedule on normal public roads to get them to the next check point on time.
Dayinsure Wales Rally GB is organised and promoted by International Motor Sports Ltd (IMS), the commercial arm of the Motor Sports Association, the governing body of UK motor sport. Branded as Wales Rally GB since 2003 when the Welsh Government became the principal funding partner, the rally is based out of a central Service Park in Deeside with competitive stages throughout north and mid Wales. It was awarded the Best Event ( Large) accolade at the National Tourism Awards for Wales 2015.
