World touring car champion set for rally debut in ERC finale
The 2019 WTCR champion and current TCR World Tour points leader, Norbert Michelisz, will fulfill his lifelong dream of competing in a rally at his home event, Rally Hungary, from 6-8 October. He will be driving a Hyundai i20 Rally2 car, under a special license granted by Hyundai Motorsport, and will be accompanied by Hungarian co-driver Robert Tagai. Michelisz will have only one test day before the event, but he has prior experience with rally cars, having piloted Hyundai’s WRC Rally1 car last year. Switching from circuit racing to rallying presents a significant challenge for Michelisz, but he is excited about the opportunity and aims to finish the race. Additionally, there are discussions about Wales hosting a round of the European Rally Championship in 2024.
