The M-Sport Stages are making a return to Greystoke Forest this year, and are scheduled to be a two-day fixture on Saturday 3rd and Sunday 4th July 2021.

​

The Cumbrian-based rally will also act as a perfect opportunity to showcase M-Sport’s new state-of-the-art facility – the M-Sport Evaluation Centre. Nearing completion, the multi-million-pound development offers a unique centre of engineering excellence where leaders in automotive technology can follow a concept from design to production on one exclusively-situated site.

​

The event will once again be limited to Ford machinery, but M-Sport are also encouraging historic Fords to join the field. The entry will also be open to all levels of competition and M-Sport are keen to showcase as many levels of their Ladder of Opportunity from across as many different eras as possible – showcasing Ford’s long-standing commitment to the support of drivers from grass-root to top-level rallying.

​

Organised in conjunction with the West Cumbria and Eden Valley Motor Clubs, the  event is expected to run 10 timed stages across approximately 58 competitive stage miles – all within the confines of Greystoke forest. Saturday’s action is expected to include six stages, while Sunday consists of four final stages ahead of a ceremonial finish. The service park will be situated within the forest complex.

​

The M-Sport Stages will also continue to promote the latest in Covid-safe protocols with the electronic management of information and documentation, socially distanced time controls and the safe recovery of vehicles and crews – all of which have been successfully adapted since first introduced at last year’s M-Sport Return to Rally Stages
