Get reminders for new World Rally Championship events

The World Rally Championship (WRC) is an international FIA motorsport series featuring the top Rally1 class, with support categories WRC2 and WRC3. Founded in 1973, the championship spans multiple continents with events held on varied terrain types including snow-packed forest roads and mountain passes. A typical rally weekend consists of 15 to 25 special stages held against the clock on closed roads, timed to one-tenth of a second precision. The series is notable for its diverse driving conditions, forcing competitors and machines to adapt rapidly from freezing temperatures to extreme heat across different road surfaces. This variety of environmental and terrain challenges makes the WRC a comprehensive test of driver skill, co-driver precision, and vehicle engineering. The next round is Rally Saudi Arabia on Wednesday, 11 November 2026 at Rally Saudi Arabia.
