Proton Motorsport will be competing in the Motorsport UK British Rally Championship (BRC) for the 2021 season, with the Malaysian car manufacturer being represented once again by Mellors Elliot Motorsport (MEM). The team will compete with the firm’s Iriz R5 rally car, which will be driven by Oliver Mellors and co-driver Max Freeman.
The attempt for the British title comes 12 months after Proton made its return to the series after a four-year sabbatical. At the Cambrian Rally last year, Mellors drove the Iriz R5 to fourth-place and collected 14 points before the arrival of the Covid-19 pandemic forced the cancellation of the championship.
