Ireland deserves a WRC round

Drivers are in accordance: Ireland should be in the World Rally Championship. DAVID EVANS followed the Circuit of Ireland and was left with no doubt that the drivers are right

So, the island of Ireland is bound for the World Rally Championship again. According to those lining the Ulster streets last week, it has to be. I know because I was there among them.

And I couldn't agree more. You almost had to feel sympathy for the European Rally Championship - the Circuit of Ireland's calendar host for this season - in the way the series was entirely overshadowed by a single event.
