CHRIS INGRAM and co-driver Alex Kihurani clinched the British Rally Championship (BRC) title with a stunning victory at a thrilling season-ending Cambrian Rally.

Ingram, a former FIA European Rally Champion, piloted his Michelin-shod Toyota GR Yaris Rally2 across the famously demanding North Wales stages with perfect precision, keeping his nerve during a rally-long battle with three other title hopefuls. But Ingram was able to pull out a crucial lead in the afternoon, securing the rally victory and in the process clinching the BRC Championship crown.

“What a relief,” said an emotional Ingram at the presentation in Llandudno. “It’s not been an easy season, but that really adds to the story for us. It’s been amazing.”

Ingram’s victory places him among an elite group of drivers who have claimed the British Rally Championship title; his name joins rally legends such as Colin McRae, Richard Burns, and Elfyn Evans on the prestigious BRC trophy.

The Cambrian Rally also served as the decisive round for the Junior British Rally Championship (JBRC), showcasing the next generation of rally talent. Robert Proudlock, co-driven by Steven Brown in their Peugeot 208 Rally4, emerged as the Junior BRC Champion after a gripping battle with five other title hopefuls in with a shout at the championship.

A measured drive from the young Scotsman saw him take the fourth spot, enough to seal the prestigious win and free entries to each round of the 2025 BRC season.
