A new three-year sponsorship deal announced between Topaz and the Donegal Motor Club coincides with the 40th anniversary of the Donegal International Rally.

Over 150 drivers from all over the country will take part in this year's Topaz Donegal International Rally which takes place from Friday 17th - 19th June. It is estimated the Rally, which is the only three-day rallying event in the country, is worth up to €25m to the local economy.

Clerk of the Course, Danny Gormley, has paid tribute to Topaz for their 'tremendous support' of the event. He also paid tribute to over 700 stewards and officials who will help police the event and thanked the people along the route for their support.

The Rally is expected to attract over 70,000 spectators.
