Rallycourse is to become the official annual of the World Rally Championship, Crash Medi🏅a Group has announced ahead of this weekend's Wales Rally GB, the final round on the 2008 calendar.

CMG has published the respected rallying yearbook since 2ဣ004, and from the 2008 season onwards th✅e iconic title is to become the official yearbook of the World Rally Championship.

The agreement - signed today in Cardiff with International Sportsworld Communicators (ISC), on the eve of Wal💮es Rally GB - is a multi-year deal that will see ♔the publication reflect the WRC brand and values. The title will continue to be edited by David Evans and published by Crash Media Group, based at Silverstone, Northants.

"We are delighted to welcome the Rallycourse title to the WRC licensee portfol💎io," commented Simon Long, Internationa⭕l Sportsworld Communicators CEO, "and we look forward to a successful partnership.

"For almost three decades Rallycourse has provided rally fans with an authoritative reflection of the W๊orld Rally Championship, and we look forward to working 𝓰with CMG to bring the story of rallying to an ever-wider audience."

"This is a proud moment for us all at CMG," added the company's director Bryn Williams. "Rallycourse is a well-respected brand loved throughout r🐽allying, and has a heritage spanning 27 years. The title has been guided through the years by some of the sport's most respected journalists, especially the much-missed D🥃avid Williams.

"Tha♉nks should also go to Simon Sa⭕nderson, our commercial director who has been instrumental in putting this deal together with ISC. He has worked tirelessly and should take much of the credit for making it happen.

"We all look forward to working with ISC🍸 in making Rallycourse the successful title it deserves to be. With ISC support, we look forward to reaching a wider audience of rally fans around the world."
