Thierry Neuville confirmed in a recent interview with Dirt Fish that he would like to compete in the next Ravens Rock Rally in honour of his late friend and Hyundai team mate Craig Breen.
It would have been Craig Breen’s dream to see the World Rally Championship assemble in Waterford and that’s precisely what the Irishman’s friend James Coleman is working on for next year.
Coleman is the driving force behind the Raven’s Rock Rally and he’s aiming to bring the world’s best to the Breen backyard next season.
It was Coleman who worked with Mike Chen and Sean Hassett to deliver their tribute drive to Breen on this year’s Ravens Rock. Next year, he wants the world to remember the man who carried the Irish flag to the very top of the world championship.
“I spoke to Thierry [Neuville] and to Ott [Tänak] and several drivers and asked if we put on an event next year, did they think they could convince the teams to bring cars.”

Whatever it would be the Hyundai Rally1 car or a BMW M3, the thought of seeing top WRC stars competing in Irish Tarmac is an enthralling prospect to talk about.
