    The World Rally Championship’s first visit to China since 1999 has been cancelled after storms damaged roads on the proposed route.

    The FIA issued a statement confirming the event will not be held:

    The FIA and WRC Promoter have received a formal request to cancel next month’s Rally China (8 – 11 September), round 10 of the 2016 FIA World Rally Championship.

    Following an evaluation of this request, it has subsequently been accepted and the rally has been removed from the 2016 calendar.

    The rally will not be replaced in this year’s FIA World Rally Championship, which will now comprise 13 rounds.

    China was due to be the tenth round of the series following this weekend’s Rally of Germany.
