British Championship return in September

Rally Isle of Man will be part of the British Rally Championship next year.

It will be the final round of the series and carry double points.

Initially the event, which will be held from Thursday 15th to Saturday 17th September, was not included on the British Championship calendar.

Organisers say that decision was based on the possibility of Wales Rally GB being scheduled for early October - that has since been pushed back to mid-November.
