The Retro Rallycross Championship roars back into action this weekend as the series makes its highly anticipated return to Mondello Park for rounds six and seven of the 2025 campaign. With the Super Retro standings still finely poised, the Irish circuit promises two days of high-octane action, drama, and no shortage of sideways thrills.
At the sharp end of the points battle, Charlie French (Ford Escort Mk2) arrives in Ireland with a slender lead in the title chase. French has been the model of consistency so far this season, but the pressure is mounting as local hero Alan Crockett (Opel Kadett) looks to delight the home crowd with a strong performance on familiar territory.
Sitting third in the standings, Vince Bristow (BMW M3) continues to keep the leaders honest, his flamboyant, tail-happy driving style always a spectacle for fans trackside. He faces an immediate threat from Pat Doran, the rallycross veteran who tasted victory at Mondello Park last year and will be hungry to repeat that feat. Doran is level on points with fellow Devon racer Allan Tapscott (Ford Escort Mk2), the pair currently tied for fourth and each determined to gain the upper hand as the championship enters its crucial phase.
Just five points further back, Stuart Emery is hitting his stride in the mighty Volvo 242, showing strong pace and proving himself a real wildcard in the battle for podiums. Meanwhile, the ever-unpredictable David Ewin brings his Mitsubishi Evo-powered Ford Fiesta into the mix, a car that adds an extra layer of intrigue to an already fiercely competitive field.
With multiple drivers capable of taking the top step of the podium, the Mondello Park double-header could prove decisive in shaping the outcome of the 2025 Super Retro crown. Every point will matter as the championship edges closer to its spectacular finale – the Fireworks Extravaganza at Lydden Hill on November 8/9, where the closing double-header will decide this year’s champion.
Fans can expect close racing, iconic cars, and plenty of sideways action as the Retro Rallycross Championship once again delivers the perfect blend of nostalgia and pure motorsport entertainment.
