Cronin and Galvin launch British Championship campaign in new Citroën

Published

Killarney and District Motor Club members Keith Cronin and Mikie Galvin will get their 2025 British Rally Championship title-bid under way this weekend in Yorkshire.

They'll be tackling the East Riding Rally in Yorkshire, marking the crews’ debut in a new Citroën C3 Rally2.
Cronin, from Bantry is chasing a fifth title, and Galvin, from Aghadoe, his second.
Cronin's switch to the Citroën comes after a successful 2024 season in a Ford Fiesta, where he won the Irish Tarmac Championship.
Despite the cancellation of the Galway International Rally, Cronin is primed for the challenge.
The East Riding Stages Rally throws ten demanding stages at the competitors. Cronin is aware of the tough competition, citing Will Creighton and Junior World Champion Romet Jurgenson as key rivals.
"We're all interested to see how Jürgenson gets on, he's the Junior World Champion, and he was selected as the FIA Rally Star Europe winner a couple of years before that. There will be others in the running too. Every British title is hard earned for whoever wins it out, and this year will be no different,” said Cronin.
