The Motorsport Ireland Forest Rally Championship comes to a premature conclusion on Saturday on the Bushwhacker Rally in Omagh following the cancellation of the Tour of Sperrins that was meant to be the sixth and final event. 

Instead, the series will now be determined by the best four scores from five events leaving current leader Claudy’s Jordan Hone (Ford Fiesta R5) and Omagh’s Patrick O’Brien (Skoda Fabia R5) battle for the Dr. Jackson Memorial Trophy. O’Brien has taken maximum points from the last three rounds and only requires a top seven championship finish to take the title.
