Father and daughter Joe and Kate Hayes are among those enlisted for the event as they make their debut in Classic rally. The pair has been involved in motorsports for over a decade.

America’s Renée Brinkerhoff arrives in Kenya as a seasoned competitor. Her 1956 Porsche 356A rally car has so far raced on four continents as part of the Porsche 356 World Rally Tour.
