It's a shame this chapter of Rally Australia history has had to end this way, but unfortunately it can't be avoided. You should be proud to have run such a great event these last few years. We made it down in 2017 and had a blast. I hope to see Rally Australia on the WRC calendar again soon.

Tough call but the right one. I'm disappointed flown in from Singapore for the weekend. So many will be gutted

Good call and much respect to all those who helped organise it, and had the tough conversations. What a force majeure to end on! Unfortunately not the way we'd hoped to end our hosting, but here's to a shot at 2021. Respect goes out to all the emergency services, leaving their families to save others. I hope we can conquer this beast soon.

Its such a shame that the rally had to be cancelled but it was the right decision! We made it every year and even made our own rally car this year!! #wrcruiser #supertint

You should change the volunteer party on Sunday night to a thank you event and invite all the fire fighters who have been working on the area.

Thanks for making the best decision in the circumstances. Sorry the rally Australia leaves us this way. Thanks for the memories

After all those thousands of hours, this was tough. It's sad to reach a break in (wrc) Rally Australia this way, but the event has been a benchmark. Well done everyone and I can't wait to see RA back on the calendar, bigger and better than ever in 2021.

Sharon - Rally has been cancelled. Sad to not be able to go to the last one in Australia. Such a great event. I feel for everyone in the area though.

The right decision. But super disappointed we will miss the event. Let's hope it's back in 2021.

I’m glad a decision has been made , was looking forward to it but it is the right decision.. I was still going to try and drive up from the Central Coast to see but kindof relieved I don’t have to travel during this time.. disappointed but thankful to all those working so hard to keep the community safe.. I would be happy for a refund of my ticket to be donated to a fire appeal if that is possible?

Last year was a wow finish. Sadly we did not realise like a lot of life it would be the last

Must've been a tough decision but the right decision. Plus, it'd be difficult for FES to spend time planning alternate rally routes when so many desperately need their help. A good call. Stay safe

Thank you, this is a huge relief. Stay safe and we'll come visit another time

Just putting it out there but Is it too late to consider some sort of "fan engagement" activities to be held perhaps in the Sydney Region?

Thank you Rally Australia for making the right decision even though it is hard

Special thanks to the ladies @ the Coffs Office for ringing us on our road trip from Melbourne to advise of the cancellation. At Gundagai Tuesday early PM we turned around and returned home

Thank you for trying so hard to make it happen.

Good call. Even though it’s a shame, we all rather have the event cancelled. Wishing everyone out there all the best and to be safe.

Bummed for you all. Tough call. But the right one. Stay safe everyone.

Best decision, would've been wrong to run during such devastation

So glad the right decision has been made. Hold your head high. Heart goes out to the locals who have lost everything

Good decision. It is so bad up here in Coffs with smoke and there are so many fires burning around us. Stay safe everyone

Good call... It is tough conditions out there. And great to see so many ppl being so understanding. It is a shame but safety first

So glad I went last year

Raleigh raceway was looking good yesterday ! The extensions made will be good ! m.youtube.com/watch?v=0Viy7wo231I&t=

Perhaps good to give update/advice also on road closures from Sydney to Coffs. At the moment does not look too good but hope it gets better

Good luck getting to Coffs Harbour in the first place lots of main rd closed

i think it would be great if thay help out with food beds hand out a little bit of water or even donate any money from the event back to the community and surrounding towns. or you guys can sit on your ass in nice motels and and then leave like its not your problem

Out of respect for people affected by the fires, today the WRC rally teams donated all the food they would have eaten over the next 4 days to OzHarvest, all the accommodation they would have used and Sebastien Ogier (6 times WRC champion) personally donated 10,000 euros to help fire injured wildlife. Thanks you guys!

I love the WRC but surely red hot race cars flying through the bush can not happen at the moment! The chance of starting another fire is just too great...

Was waiting for that knew with the way the fires were I could see it cancelled 🏁🙈😎

"The changes are currently pending approval from the FIA and New South Wales Government" Interesting to know if the NSW government approval is referring to emergency services, or Destination NSW.

Due to the rally being shortened, Are we entitled to refunds from Ticketek? Would like to donate to RFS as im now not getting to see a full event caused by mother nature.

How about out of respect for all the areas it goes to they can it. I love the wrc. But I'm more concerned about my partners property at brewers rd and I'm pretty sure nobody in ulong nambucca Bucca macksville and bowraville don't really want it there.

The income from this world event will help the aeria. To cope with this

Cancel it, the wrc teams are putting their foots down or since the cars and gear are probably in Australia now ship them to your mates in NZ and let NZ help you out and make an event still happen

Good luck team !!

Cancel it. As a Rally fanatic I'd hate to see lives put at risk.

Cancelled thank goodness twitter.com/RallyAustralia/status/1194072216817635328?s=19

Come and run it up around Toowoomba in Southern Queensland. I know a keen photographer. Just sayin' 🙂

That link is a 404 guys. I presume that's because a decision to cancel the entire event is imminent?

I saw on a news feed it was cancelled

Whole event now cancelled.

Rally Australia, I know you guys are flat out, but here is a thought to consider. Please donate the Special Stage tickets sales, VIP Lounge entry fees, and have a Gold Coin entry to Rally HQ at the Stadium plus the Dragon Concert, a Fire Aid Appeal fund raiser.Maybe the teams and drivers could donate their suits, and bits and pieces for an auction on Sunday night? I am sure the fans and volunteers would welcome your gesture towards the many victims of the devastating fire. I am confident that at least $100K could be raised by WRC and Rally Australia.

Debbie we should know more today and can make a plan
