As the event is now only 12 weeks away I am looking to start firming up the stage staffing.

Dennis Turner Memorial Stages Rally, Fulbeck Airfield – 2 August 2026

From John Newlove:

Please see request for marshals , please make contact either on SRT or reply to his email

Thanks

John

 

We still need plenty more marshals and radios for the Dennis Turner Memorial Stages Rally (DTMSR) at Fulbeck Airfield on Sunday 2nd August.

If you have already volunteered, thank you. If you haven’t, and are willing and available to help, please go to Rally Stage Team and sign in for the event. Here’s the link to RST: https://www.rallystageteam.co.uk/default.aspx

All marshals will get a Drink & Butty voucher, some freebies, and an automatic entry into the Marshals’ Cash Draw.

This year’s event, as the title suggests, is in memory of Dennis who, as many of you will know, was a very long-standing and respected club member, and past Chairman, Treasurer and Vice President.

The event is a round of several championships, and offers competitors 8 mixed-surface stages totalling about 50 miles, and since starting to run the Fulbeck events in 2023, we have won the EMAMC competitor-voted “Best Mixed Surface Event of the Year” all 3 years running, so we’re expecting a full entry and some hot competition!

However, that’s no good if we don’t have enough marshals and radios to safely run the event, so if you can help, please go to RST and sign in!

Kind regards
Jon Leckenby
Chief Marshal, DTMSR

Stage Commanders

Motorsport UK is changing the requirements for Stage Commanders.

The latest edition of the Stage Rally Safety Requirements says:

2.10.9. From 2027, all special stages must have a licensed Stage Commander. Non-licensed Stage Commanders may be used only when shadowed by a licensed Stage Commander, or when the Deputy Stage Commander holds such a licence.

For this year (2026) everyone who had a Stage Commander grade on their marshals registration was entitled to apply for a Stage Commander licence. Our current understanding is that people who have a 2026 Stage Commander licence will be able to renew it for 2027.

However, if you don’t currently have a Stage Commander licence and want to become a licensed Stage Commander we believe you will have to attend a training session. We believe that Motorsport UK are arranging dates for these sessions.

If you want to become a licensed Stage Commander, or want refresher training, I would urge you to email volunteers@motorsportuk.org asking when there will be Stage Commander training – that should get your name on to a list of potential attendees (and might influence where the training is offered).

WRC returns to the UK: Rally Scotland

From ANWCC:

Dear Clubs and Association Secretaries,
Yesterday, Hugh Chambers announced that Motorsport UK had secured an agreement with World Rally Championship Promoter GmbH to bring the FIA World Rally Championship back to the UK, with a new event titled Rally Scotland, beginning in 2027.

Following funding agreements with the Scottish Government, Aberdeen City Council and Aberdeenshire Council, Rally Scotland is confirmed for an initial three-year run from 2027 to 2029.

The return of the championship is a landmark moment for UK motorsport. As a cornerstone of the World Rally Championship since 1973, Britain’s place on the calendar is restored—reconnecting the series with one of its most passionate and knowledgeable fanbases.

Based in Aberdeen, Rally HQ and the Service Park will be located at P&J Live. The event will blend world-class forest gravel stages with dynamic urban spectator sections, bringing the action closer to fans than ever before.

More than a sporting spectacle, Rally Scotland is designed as a platform for progress—demonstrating how motorsport can contribute to wider societal and environmental goals. This includes:

Advancing sustainable fuel and low-carbon technologies, with WRC cars already running on 100% fossil-free fuel

Inspiring communities through STEM and future mobility initiatives

Supporting volunteer development across the motorsport community

Expanding diversity and inclusion within the sport

Delivering tangible economic and tourism benefits to the region

Motorsport UK will work in close partnership with the WRC Promoter, government and local stakeholders, and the rally community to deliver an event of the highest standard.

Further updates will be shared as plans develop. Visit rallyscotland.org to sign up and follow @RallyScotland for the latest news.

Kind Regards
Tracey Smith
ANWCC General Secretary
