Craig Breen Foundation launched to help aspiring rally drivers
The Craig Breen Foundation has been established in memory of World Rally Championship star Craig Breen, who tragically lost his life in a WRC testing accident in April. The foundation aims to continue Breen’s passion for rallying and encouraging young drivers at the grassroots level. Supported by Hyundai Motorsport, Sports & You, Hyundai Portugal, Hyundai Spain, Motorsport Ireland, and the FIA, the foundation will offer a 35,000 euro prize pool to the J1000 Forestry Series next year, catering to drivers aged 14-17. The championship will be supported for a minimum of five years. Prizes for the championship winners include financial support and funded drives in the Spanish and Portuguese Hyundai i20 Cup with the Sports & You team. The foundation aims to honor Breen’s memory and develop the path to top-level rallying for young Irish competitors.
