WRC to return to GB in 2027 as Scotland secures three-year deal

The World Rally Championship will return to Great Britain in 2027 following the announcement of a three-year deal to bring rallying’s top tier to Scotland.

An all-new gravel-based Rally Scotland event ends the WRC’s seven-year hiatus from the UK following Wales Rally GB’s departure from the calendar after 2019, which was due to a loss of funding from the Welsh government. Britain has a rich rallying pedigree with the RAC Rally one of founding members of the inaugural WRC in 1973.
