International Sportsworld Communicators is a UK-based company which owns the commercial rights to The World Rally Championship.

[edit] History

Bernie Ecclestone founded ISC in July 1982. [1] In 1996 ISC signed a 14 year agreement with the FIA for the exclusive broadcasting rights for 18 FIA championships. In early 2000 the ISC/FIA agreement was modified to reduce the number of rights packages to two, the World Rally and Regional Rally Championships. In April 2000 Ecclestone sold ISC to a group lead by David Richards. [2]
