#OnThisDay in 2016

In 2016 the British Rally Championship returned with a bang after a 12 month sabbatical, as the eagerly anticipated Mid Wales Stages hosted an impressive curtain raiser.

Were you there?

Ever heard of this guy? 😉

@ElfynEvans and @craigparry2 took the 2016 British Rally Championship title, 20 years after Elfyn's father Gwyndaf secured the honour.

The 2016 season saw an epic line-up with Evans winning five rounds in his @MSportLtd Fiesta R5.

We are extremely sad to hear that 1978 British Rally Champion and 1983 World Champion Hannu Mikkola has passed away aged 78.

His #BRC success helped form a foundation for his formiddable WRC career, being one of the few to tame the early four wheel drive era.

RIP.

Evans/Martin aim for the top whilst Breen/Nagle make a welcome return to the Hyundai i20 WRC.
Greensmith/Edmondson & Seb Marshall is also in action 💪
