# Rali Safári

Rali Safari (ou Rally Safari) é considerado por muitos como o mais difícil rali do mundo. Foi disputado pela primeira vez entre 27 de maio e 1º de junho de 1953, como o East African Coronation Safari no Quênia, Uganda e Tanzânia, em celebração à coroação da Rainha Isabel II. Em 1960 foi designado de East African Safari Rally e manteve o nome até 1974, quando passou para Rali Safari.
O evento fez parte do calendário do WRC por muitos anos, até ser excluído devido à falta de fundos e de organização em 2003. O governo queniano está a tentar trazer de volta o rali. Desde 2003, que o evento faz parte do Campeonato Africano de Rali organizado pela FIA. É atualmente chamado de KCB Safari Rally, desde que é patrocinado por Kenya Commercial Bank (KCB).
O piloto local Shekhar Mehta, foi o que mais triunfou, ganhou por cinco vezes 1973, 1979, 1980, 1981 e 1982.
