Local trio primed for Bantry finale

Essentially, it will be a battle between popular Welsh ace, Mel Evans (Subaru WRC), the triple local challenge featuring Denis Cronin, Daragh O’Riordan and Brian O’Mahony, all in Subaru WRCs and the Toyota Corolla of five-time Irish Tarmac champion, Eugene Donnelly.

It’s a new beginning for the event with its new base in Bantry, the service park adjacent to the town square is set to bring a unique atmosphere to the rally. It is also a counting round of the Windscreen Company Southern Four Championship and the TMC Skibbereen and District Car Club Championship.
