Bathshack Proudly Sponsor Desi Henry

Bathshack is happy to announce our sponsorship of the 28-year-old rally driver, Desi Henry from Portglenone.

With big ambitions, Desi prepares to tackle the Irish Tarmac Rally Championship (ITRC), and with the experienced Liam Moynahan at his side, he will certainly be one to look out for. The duo won the Irish Forest Championship back in 2016.

We will seeing Desi Henry using a new car, a Ford Fiesta R5, which he debuted at the Mayo rally recently. A change from the Skoda Fabia, it is the latest high spec rally car built by M Sport in the UK for Ford motorsport and it will be maintained by MacSport the family-run motorsport team.

Bathshack's very own Connor Dunlop commented:

“Desi Henry is a great rally driver who we’ve been involved with for some time now. The Bathshack team are very optimistic about the outcome of the rally and are excited to see more of Henry's strong performances. This is a great partnership for Bathshack, one I’m delighted with given my own personal interest. With Desi’s eye on the Irish Tarmac Rally Championship and with past form, I know he and the team will do well in 2018."

Connor Dunlop concluded, “This was an easy decision to make. This will be a winning partnership given Bathshack’s growth and continued expansion and no matter what round of the championship someone is going to attend your never far from a Bathshack showroom or you can always get us online at bathshack.com”

We have all witnessed a positive and thrilling start to the championship at West Cork Rally. With very little experience on the famous stages, the team has come away with a very strong start to the championship.

"Black Beauty" will return to the Easter stages in 3 weeks.

At Bathshack, we love to get involved with sporting and racing events. In our news section, we'll be updating with motorsport news and events. Make sure to check back for more ITRC updates.
