Local motorsport fans will have their deepest desires met and their passionate prayers answered as First Citizens King of the Hill makes its long-awaited return today.

After last year’s cancellation due to the COVID-19 pandemic, King of the Hill officially gets going at 10:30 a.m. at Content in St Thomas before concluding at the Vaucluse Raceway in the same parish.

The sprint shakedown serves as a precursor to the island’s premier motorsport event, Sol Rally Barbados on June 4 and 5 as the results are used to seed participants but in recent years, the event has taken on a significance and buzz of its own.

Rally director and BRC vice-chairman Neil Barnard told Sun Sport while some final touches still have to be put on their Rally preparations, all systems are go for today’s bragging rights sprint.  (NM)
