Rally GB reimagined by the Tour de France
Britain's round of the World Rally Championship has been based in Wales for the past 17 years and faithfully follows the series' Friday-Sunday format. But what if it didn't have to? And what if Wales was the starting point for a revolutionary route?
The chatter about the route for this year's Rally GB raised a thought: what good is a visionary without a clean sheet of paper? And if supplied with paper, could the vision be found?
It could, thanks to Rally GB route co-ordinator Andrew Kellitt.
It's worth noting that while thinking towards blue skies, Kellitt has been rather tethered to current World Rally Championship regulations.
