Guernsey Rally 2025: Motorsport Excitement Meets Community Precision
The picturesque island of Guernsey prepares to roar into action this weekend as the 2025 Guernsey Rally kicks off, blending high-octane motorsport with meticulous safety planning and community engagement.
Record Participation Expected at the Rally
With 38 cars lined up at the starting grid, this year’s event represents the largest gathering in the rally’s recent history. Local and international drivers will navigate the island’s challenging country lanes, testing their skills across seven competitive stages spanning two days.
Prioritizing Safety for Spectators and Participants
