Safari Rally 2022 Dates Confirmed

The World Rally Championship organizers have confirmed that next year's Safari Rally will be staged on June 23-26 as the sixth stop of the Championship.

The Kenyan Government, Kenya Motorsports Federation, and the WRC signed a five-year deal to include the Safari Rally in the WRC calendar after the successful hosting of the first event in close to two decades last June in Naivasha.

Speaking during the KCB Nanyuki Rally, WRC Safari Rally CEO Phineas Kimathi said that 80% of last year's routes will be retained next year with 20% being new routes.

The calendar was approved at an FIA World Motor Sport Council meeting in Paris on Friday. Next year marks the WRC's 50th season.

KCB Bank was the official financial partner of the return of the WRC Safari Rally this year and the Bank has committed to continue supporting the world's biggest rallying stage.
