Jon Armstrong says he wants to “push” for the European Rally Championship (ERC) title after announcing a full campaign driving a M-Sport Ford Fiesta.
The 30-year-old, from Northern Ireland, recorded four top-10 finishes and earned a podium, second place at the season-ending Rally Silesia in October, in the ERC last season.
He was ERC3 champion in 2023, the second tier of European rallying, and is a two-time runner-up in the Junior WRC, which runs as part of the World Rally Championship.
Supported by Motorsport Ireland, Armstrong will be co-driven by Shane Byrne for the first time.
M-Sport team principal Richard Millener said it was a “huge pleasure” to welcome Jon and Motorsport Ireland back to the team for 2025.
Armstrong and Byrne will start their partnership at the West Cork Rally from 14-16 March before embarking on their European campaign.
Rally Sierra Morena in Spain opens the ERC season in April before events in Hungary, Sweden, Poland, Italy, Czech Republic, Wales and Croatia.
