British rally champion Chris Ingram, fresh off his 2024 title win, is gearing up to compete in the FORUM8 Rally Japan, marking the final round of the 2024 FIA World Rally Championship.
Ingram will drive a Toyota GR Yaris Rally2 under the Castrol MEM Rally Team, showcasing Castrol’s iconic colours in this high-stakes event set in Japan’s Aichi and Gifu prefectures.
Ingram, a seasoned WRC competitor with 22 rally events under his belt since his debut in 2013, brings experience from two top-10 finishes and multiple podiums in WRC2 and WRC3. The British driver is also a former European Rally Champion.
2024 has been a standout year for Ingram, with four rally victories and leading positions in every event he’s entered, solidifying his reputation in British rallying.
Ingram’s co-driver, Alex Kihurani, is familiar with the Japanese event, having competed in Rally Japan in 2022, which may provide an edge in navigating the local terrain.
Ingram’s upcoming competition in Japan underscores his swift rise in rallying and strengthens the Castrol MEM Rally Team’s international presence as they look to make a strong impression at Rally Japan.
