The Cathedral of Rallying welcomes the FIA EHRC

Fafe is more than just a rally, it is a legendary destination in the world of motorsport. Known as the “Cathedral of Rallying,” this Portuguese town is famous for its passionate crowds, demanding gravel stages, and of course, the iconic Fafe jump. The event has a rich history, having been part of the WRC calendar for decades, and its roads are etched into the memories of fans and drivers all over the world.

This year, the Historic Rally Fafe will make its debut on the prestigious calendar of the FIA European Historic Rally Championship (EHRC). A new and exciting chapter for a rally full of tradition, combining Fafe’s raw and electrifying atmosphere with the nostalgia of classic rally cars.

EHRC competitors will take on the same legendary roads that have tested generations of drivers, but with a special twist: they’ll be behind the wheel of some of the most celebrated vintage machines in rallying history. A unique opportunity to see iconic cars from the 60s, 70s, 80s, and even the 90s — including the newly eligible models from 1993 to 2000 — pushed to the limit on sacred ground.

Get ready for an unforgettable experience, where past and present collide in a thrilling showcase of speed, skill, and heritage. The Historic Rally Fafe promises to be a spectacular addition to the FIA EHRC, celebrating the enduring spirit of rallying in its purest form.
