MOTORSPORT: Devine nominated again for prestigious Billy Coleman award

COUNTY Derry rally star Callum Devine has once again been nominated for the Billy Coleman Young Irish Rally Driver of the Year.

The Park man has yet to win the award but reached the final three in 2016 when Monaghan’s Josh Moffat took the honours.

Devine travels to Dublin next week for an interview as part of the selection process.  The award is named after Cork and Irish Rally legend Billy Coleman.  The winner snaps up €50,000 of support for their racing career and access to the support of award coordinator Tom Walsh.

“It is great to get nominated,” Devine expressed.  “I got nominated last year for it and would be over the moon if I was able to win such a high profile award.  It would be great support for going forward into my future plans.”

Devine, a previous Irish champion, was this season’s British Junior champion following a dramatic final day win on the Isle of Man.
