There are two guests present on this week’s Special Stage Rally Podcast and we fly through the topics of discussion, with a particular New South Wales focus.
We chat to Bega Valley Rally winner Riley Walters about his recent success and his rally plans for the future, and discuss the back-flip by the FIA and the WRC that has seen them extend the current Rally1 Hybrid cars’ life until the end of 2026.
Rally of Bathurst road director, John McCredie, joins us to talk about plans for this November’s event, while also enlightening us on their ambitions on joining next year’s Australian Rally Championship calendar.
And could Neal Bates really match it with his sons at ARC level in a GR Yaris? That’s one of the questions we pose on this week’s Special Stage Rally Podcast.
We also look forward to this weekend’s Royal Rally of Scandinavia and Hayden Paddon’s chances of winning against the might of local hero Oliver Solberg.
