Colin McRae's nephew moves up to Rally2 and enters BRC

McRae: a name that still resonates in the hearts of fans rally, almost 18 years after the tragic death of Colin McRae, 1995 world champion of WRC. The Scottish driver's legacy has never been greater, whether on the roadside or in the paddocks. But also on the track. Max McRae, son of Alister and nephew of Colin, is starting to gain traction in rallying and is climbing the ranks at great speed.

After having learned the ropes in Rally4 with the Peugeot 208 in particular, by finishing 3rd in the ERC4, the Briton will move up a level: in 2025, the 20-year-old driver will move up to Rally2 and will compete in the BRC, the British Rally Championship. He will be competing at the wheel of a Citroën C3 Rally2 equipped with Indian MRF Tyres.

“The news is finally out! After a long wait, we are delighted to announce that we will be competing in the British Rally Championship driving a Citroën C3 Rally2, Max McRae rejoices on his social networks. I am very excited to be using the MRF tyres and I can’t wait to learn more about them this weekend at the opening round of the championship, the East Riding Stages Rally! A big thank you to all my amazing sponsors and supporters who have helped me make this project happen. It will be another year of learning but I can’t wait to get started.”
