Stuart Maloney is the Barbados Rally Club’s (BRC) Champion Driver elect, after winning Sunday’s (November 17) BRC Winter Rally at the wheel of his Skoda Fabia RS Rally2 with co-driver Kristian Yearwood. Fought out on a day of challenging weather and tricky road conditions in St John, the eighth and final round of the 2024 BRC Driver’s and Class Championships provided an action-packed climax to the season.

Stuart Maloney drew closer to a second Barbados Rally Club (BRC) Champion Driver title on Sunday (August 25), winning both directions of the BRC Summer Sprint. His closest rival before the weekend Chris Hoad, who lost the title to Maloney after tie-break rules were invoked in 2021, shared the Clubman 2 class wins with Allan Kinch, so drifted a couple of points further behind.

Following his victory on last month’s BCIC Rally Barbados, Stuart Maloney leads the Barbados Rally Club’s (BRC) Champion Driver title chase after five out of eight rounds. More than 70 drivers have scored points as the 2024 BRC Driver’s & Class Championships passed the half-way point and some close battles are brewing, with eight class-leaders and five former Champion Drivers currently in the overall top 10.

Dane Skeete and Tyler Mayhew in their Subaru Impreza WRC S12 won First Citizens King of the Hill (KotH) on Sunday (May 26), the final shakedown before next weekend’s BCIC Rally Barbados (May 31-June 2). It was their second KotH victory – they also won in 2020 – while Roger Mayers and Barry Ward (Toyota WR Starlet) became the first crew to finish top 2wd three years in a row since the event first ran in 2008.
