Just two days left to benefit from Essay ‘Early Bird’ rates

The FIA European Rallycross Championship will return to Essay for the first time in 13 years next month, as the popular Orne venue prepares to host the curtain-raising contest in the 2024 Euro RX1, Euro RX3 and FIA RX2e Championship campaigns.

The full entry lists for Euro RX1 and Euro RX3 will be published on 16 May, but a number of big names have already been announced, including two-time French Rallycross Champion Fabien Pailler – Euro RX1 championship runner-up in 2021 – and former French Junior Rallycross Champion Dylan Dufas, Euro RX3’s newest event-winner.

The Euro RX1 grid will additionally include highly-rated young Norwegian privateer Sivert Svardal – who triumphed on home soil in Hell last summer – reigning Euro RX3 Champion Damian Litwinowicz and Aleš Fučík in a car previously piloted by multiple FIA World Rallycross Champion, Johan Kristoffersson.

There are also a brace of father-and-son pairings in the shape of Pascal and Jérémy Lambec and Attila and Márk Mózer, while front-runner Nils Volland and Portugal’s André Sousa have confirmed their participation in Euro RX3.

Discounted ‘Early Bird’ tickets for the event cost €57,50 for adult weekend admission, with single-day passes priced at €32,50 for Saturday or €37,50 for Sunday. Children aged from 12-to-16 will be admitted for €10 on Saturday, €15 on Sunday or €20 for the full weekend, while under-12s go free.

All options represent significant savings – up to 40% off full-price tickets – but the offer will end at midnight CET on Sunday, 5 May, so there’s no time to delay!

Camping is also available, with tent pitches costing €20 and caravan/motorhome places €47,50, including the use of toilet and shower facilities.
