The fourth round of the FIA European Historic Sporting Rally Championship, the Las Vegas Ypres Historic Rally, proved to be a hard challenge for the regular competitors as they faced some tough opposition from local Belgian entries whose vast experience on the twisty farm tracks gave them a distinct home advantage.

All four categories saw action and drama over the 14 special stages, with some competitors falling by the wayside as others fought through to the final stage to take the finish in Ypres.
