Question Getting into rally

Hello guys,

I have recently developed an interest in the sport. Are there any magazines, documentaries, YouTube channels or the like that would provide a good starting point to get to know more about events, drivers and the sport itself? I have never had an interest in cars or motorsport before so I am a complete newbie. Many thanks in advance!

Anything Dirtfish posts, look into Rally.Tv maybe. That combo is probably months of content to see and learn a lot.

Subaru documents their rally in a series called "Launch Control". Very entertaining.

It's all hidden behind a paywall and very little YouTube content, it stoping new people like yourself getting into rally sadly.

Here are the best free options:

M-Sport, who run the Ford WRC program, recently made a TV series. I haven't seen it yet but it's supposed to be good.
