Message from Max Mosley
It gives me very great pleasure to welcome you to the FIA World Rally Championship and the 555 Safari Rally. The 555 Safari Rally is the second round of the 1996 FIA World Rally Championship and will undoubtedly prove to be as exciting and dramatic as last year. International media and spectator interest will be high as the event falls at a stage inthe championship when the contest between teams and competitors is beginning to take shape..
The 555 Safari Rally has always provided a few surprises and is famous for testing the stamina and endurance of the drivers and teams to the limit, fulfilling its reputation for being the toughest event of the championship. There are few more spectacular and challenging places in the world to go rallying and I look forward to seeing you there!
