The 2025 FIA World Rally Championship is a planned motorsport season that will be the fifty-third occurrence of the World Rally Championship, an international rallying series organised by the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) and WRC Promoter GmbH. Teams and crews compete for the World Rally Championships for Drivers, Co-drivers and Manufacturers. Crews are free to compete in cars complying with Groups Rally1 to Rally5 regulations; however, only manufacturers competing with Rally1 cars are eligible to score points in the manufacturers’ championship. The championship is set to begin in January 2025 with the Monte Carlo Rally and conclude in November 2025 with the calendar newcomer Rally Saudi Arabia. The series is supported by the WRC2 and WRC3 categories at every round of the championship and by Junior WRC at selected events.
Thierry Neuville and Martijn Wydaeghe are the reigning drivers’ and co-drivers’ champions, having secured their first championship titles at the 2024 Rally Japan. Toyota are the defending manufacturers’ champions.
