Massive Crowds and Incidents During the Rally

The Safari Rally traditionally attracts huge crowds who gather along rally stages to watch drivers tackle the rugged terrain around areas such as Naivasha and nearby regions.
While many fans attend to celebrate motorsport, the large turnout sometimes leads to safety concerns and crowd management challenges.

In one incident during the 2026 rally, a Kenyan female driver was forced to withdraw from the competition after spectators allegedly damaged her car by throwing stones, highlighting the risks that can occur when crowds gather too close to rally stages.
