Jim Clark Rally

The Jim Clark Rally is a rallying race held in the Scottish Borders, Scotland, United Kingdom. It was first held in 1970, and is named after 1963 and 1965 Formula One champion Jim Clark. It has been a prominent round of the British Rally Championship since its debut in the series in 1999.

The 2014 rally was stopped after the deaths of three spectators, and cancelled for 2015. The organisers announced in November 2015 that the event would be reinstated for 2016 in some form. It was cancelled in 2016 however, due to low entries. The Motor Sports Authority refused the rally a permit for 2017. The event returned to the British Rally Championship in 2022.
