Between 1971 and 1977 the British Rally Championship consisted of just stage rallies, previous to this some road rallies had been included. During this period the championship was open only to British Competition Licence holders. In 1978 the series was replaced by the British Open Championship, where drivers of all nationalities were able to score points.
