Audley Croney Memorial Trophy winners for the third time

Jamaican all-rounder Kyle Gregg, a title-winner on both racetrack and rally stage, has confirmed that he will contest a full season of rallying in Barbados this year in a new Ford Fiesta Rally2, which arrived in the island this week. His campaign will include Sol Rally Barbados 2023 and all other rounds of the R5 Rally Championship presented by First Citizens, which starts with the Barbados Rally Club’s (BRC) Shakedown Stages on Sunday, April 23.

With 20 trips to compete in the Barbados Rally’s Club (BRC) blue riband event already under his belt, Britain’s Martin Stockdale is again preparing his BMW 1M Coupe to head across the Atlantic for this year’s 33rd running of the event. Sol Rally Barbados 2023 will run over the weekend of June 9-11 with The Rally Show on Saturday, June 3, and King of the Hill the following day; on-line entries close on Friday, April 28.

The route for Sol Rally Barbados 2023 (June 9-11) will return the Caribbean’s biggest annual motor sport international to its traditional pre-pandemic format, with Saturday’s special stages run at venues in the northern parishes and Sunday’s in the east of the island. A new venue for the previous weekend’s ‘shakedown event’ King of the Hill (June 4) will be announced in the coming weeks by the organising Barbados Rally Club (BRC), which has today (Saturday) also issued a reminder that the entry closing date is just five weeks away.
