There is no ignition relay as such. The ignition coil is fed directly from the ignition switch.
The engine ECU main power feed is fed by a relay though, and this is located, along with the fuel pump relay and a usually empty socket for a lambda sensor heater, under a plastic cover on the inner wing near the air filter.
