British Rally title would be an honour – Creighton

British Rally Championship

It’s a “huge honor” for William Creighton to be able to capture the British Rally Championship title at Rali Ceredigion.

In the final round of the BRC season, Creighton and co-driver Liam Regan will win the title.

Former junior world and British champion, Creighton, is a Motorsport Ireland driver who has only recently managed to escape the BRC title.

Creighton praised the season as having been “an incredible one.”

Every rally has asked a different thing of us, and the competition has been fierce.

It’s a great honor for us to compete for the British title at Ceredigion, but we’re keeping our sights on the rally itself.

The 27-year-old is vying for the championship against his Toyota team-mate Meirion Evans, who can also win if Creighton doesn’t score.

If Creighton wins, local driver Evans will finish second, or if the Northern Irishman finishes second and his rival will finish third.

A strong result for Creighton will at least help to bring the title to the Cambrian Rally’s final round in October.

The European Rally Championship, which will bring the best drivers from Europe to the United Kingdom, makes up the Rali Ceredigion, a special event held during the BRC season.

With the ERC drivers present, it’s the perfect opportunity to see how we stack up against some of the best in Europe, Crighton continued. The stages are technical, quick, and unforgiving.

In action are Devine and Armstrong.

With three rounds left, Motorsport Ireland’s Jon Armstrong, an outsider contender for the ERC title, will join Creighton at the rally.

M-Sport driver Shane Byrne and M-Sport driver Armstrong, who finished on the podium in the final race in the Czech Republic, expressed their excitement for the Wales event.

We have two strong rallies coming up to finish the season strong, despite the fact that it has a bit of an outside chance to keep the ERC title fight alive.

The goal is to have a clean rally, enjoy ourselves, and see what the outcome we can bring home at the end of the year because we had a good pace.

Anything is possible, since we finished second last time out in Barum. We’ll give it our all, have a good time, and start the week off right.

Callum Devine, the reigning Irish Tarmac Rally champion, will also make a one-time appearance in Wales as MRF Tyres Skoda Fabia pilot.

Devine expressed his delight in this opportunity.
