Central European Rally (16–19 October) marked an emotional conclusion for the FIA Rally Star programme – the global talent detection programme launched in 2021 to identify and support the next generation of rally talent. The event also brought the curtain down on the 2025 FIA Junior WRC season, serving as the final double-points round in […]

The Finn assumed control on Saturday when team-mate Sébastien Ogier crashed out in treacherous conditions. From there, he managed the gap with trademark composure to take victory by 43.7sec. It marked Rovanperä’s third win of the year following triumphs in the Canary Islands and Finland, and Toyota’s ninth manufacturers’ title – surpassing Citroën’s tally of […]

Rovanperä began the day just 0.6sec behind Ogier but seized the initiative immediately, moving into the lead on the opening Made in FRG test. One stage later, Ogier’s hopes of victory and a crucial haul of points ended abruptly when he ran wide on a damp, leaf-covered section of asphalt on the rain-affected Keplý stage. […]

The eight-time world champion led from the outset, his experience proving decisive over the day’s six stages spanning almost 100km across three countries and varying road conditions. Despite seeing his advantage trimmed slightly on the repeated afternoon loop, Ogier ended Friday on top as Toyota Gazoo Racing tightened its grip on both the rally and […]

The Welshman overhauled overnight leader Adrien Fourmaux to establish a 5.6sec advantage over his Toyota Gazoo Racing team-mate Sébastien Ogier, who jumped to second position as tyre strategies backfired for rival Hyundai drivers Fourmaux and Thierry Neuville. Evans delivered a masterclass in wet-weather rallying across the morning’s three stages, climbing from fifth to the rally […]

The Frenchman inherited the top spot when Tänak pulled up 5.6 kilometres into the day’s longest test, ending what had been a commanding performance from the Estonian – who had built an advantage of nearly 10sec after overhauling championship leader Elfyn Evans’ morning advantage. “I can only be pleased because I think it is the […]

The eight-time world champion’s triumph capped an extraordinary comeback week that began with him dropping almost 40 seconds to a tyre deflation on Friday but ended with both the rally victory and a surge to within nine points of championship leader Elfyn Evans.

The eight-time world champion started the day fourth overall and 17.8sec behind overnight leader Rovanperä, but delivered a masterclass in tactical rallying to emerge with a 10.3sec advantage over Adrien Fourmaux heading into Sunday’s decisive four stages. Ogier’s charge gathered momentum throughout Saturday as his tactical gamble of carrying only five tyres versus his rivals’ […]

Frenchman Fourmaux dominated Friday’s action, leading for most of the day with a composed drive that put him on early the road to what would be a maiden WRC victory. But 3.5 kilometres from the finish of the penultimate stage, a rock impact punctured one of his Hyundai i20 N Rally1’s tyres and handed the […]
