Defending champions Toyota Gazoo Racing are expected to run a livery similar to the 2018 season, but the show will be the first time to meet the Japanese firm’s new British line-up of Kris Meeke and Seb Marshall.

Autosport International will launch the 2019 FIA World Rally Championship on the first public day at Birmingham’s NEC on Saturday 12 January.

Kate Woodley, Events Director, said: “The livery unveil is such an exciting part of the season and to have all the World Rally Championship teams showing their colours for the first time at Autosport International is amazing for us. But, even more importantly, it’s amazing for the fans to have the chance to share in this moment.”
