BP Ford Abu Dh𓆉abi World Rally team d🎃irector Malcolm Wilson will visit Edinburgh this weekend to give advice to the aspiring young rally stars from across the UK.

Wil💝son will give an insight into what a top WRC team looks for in a young driver and make the group aware of the commitment levels required to reach the top of the sport. The lecture will be part of the MSA British Rally Elite training event at Edinburgh University on Saturday Marc♒h 15.

Also attending the event will be Stobart VK M-Sport Ford World Rally Team's Matthew Wilson and Scotꦉt Martin, both graduates of the MSA British Rally Elite scheme. They will talk about the sort of skills and preparation needed to progress from national to world level rallying and explain how the MSA supported train𝐆ing scheme has assisted them in this transition.

The country's best young rally drivers will attend the event and will receive instruction in topics that will improve their chances of making it to the h🌠ighest levels of world class rallying.

The MSA British Rally Elite scheme is a national tra💛ining programme designed to identify and support the best young rallying talent in the UK and is backed by UK motorsport's governing body.

As well as being the first group sessi꧙on in 2008 for the latest intake on the scheme, the Edinburgh event will also be open to non-memb🌠ers for the first time.

The organisers decided to include an introductory workshop and networking opportunity, during one of the three days, afte𝕴r being impressed by the response they got from those who applied for the scheme but were unsuccessful.
