The World Rally Championship (WRC) is set to host its third event of the season with the Safari Rally in Kenya, marking the fifth consecutive year the event has taken place. Historically dominated by Toyota drivers, the Safari Rally has seen fewer entries from Hyundai and Ford achieving podium finishes. This year, two Estonian teams will compete in the WRC2 category: Robert Virves paired with Jakko Viilo driving a Škoda, and Romet Jürgenson with Siim Oja behind the wheel of a Ford.

The rally is scheduled to kick off on Thursday, with the opening test stage commencing at 7:01 AM local time. Postimees will provide live updates and coverage of the rally, ensuring fans can follow the progress of the event in real-time. The presence of Estonian teams adds local interest, showcasing their skills on an international platform amid tough competition.

The Safari Rally is not only a thrilling event for motorsport enthusiasts but also a challenging test of endurance and performance for the drivers, given the unique terrain and climate conditions of Kenya. As the Estonian teams prepare to tackle the rally stages, their participation represents an opportunity to elevate their competitive experience and put their capabilities to the test against more established competitors.
