All eyes on Flow King of the Hill

The Barbados Rally Club (BRC) and the title sponsor of its premier event, Sol Rally Barbados, are committed to running this year’s event in as safe an environment as possible. This was emphasised by both stakeholders yesterday (Thursday) during a Media Briefing held in the Open-Air Suites at Bushy Park Barbados, which is playing an important role in the infrastructure for the event, postponed from earlier in the year by the coronavirus pandemic.
