The 2026 Rob’s Magic Rally Raid Championship is heading for a thrilling conclusion this weekend, with four competitors locked in a tight battle for the overall title.
The final round of the championship roars into action on Saturday at Soysambu Wildlife Conservancy, where 25 competitors on motorcycles, quad bikes, cars and buggies will tackle a demanding 220-kilometre cross-country race.
Reigning champion Ian Duncan, multiple champion Ross Field, Robbie Calder and Chinu Matharu are separated by just a handful of points, setting the stage for an intense contest in which the overall winner could emerge from any of the four.
With the championship title still up for grabs, the equation is simple: the competitor who finishes on top will be crowned the 2026 champion.
The four-round series has taken competitors across different parts of Kenya, combining high-speed motorsport action with conservation efforts.
Beyond the competition, the championship has raised more than KSh3 million for various wildlife conservancies across the country, supporting conservation initiatives alongside the promotion of rally raid motorsport.
Action begins at 2pm on Saturday, with designated spectator viewing locations available on the Rally Raid Kenya social media platforms.
