Did You Know?

  • Rally Saudi Arabia 2025 marks history in motion. For the first time ever, the World Rally Championship finale will unfold in Saudi Arabia introducing a spectacular new chapter for global motorsport.
  • Based out of the iconic Jeddah Corniche Circuit, the event combines blistering open-desert speed with unforgiving rocky technicality. The terrain shifts dramatically from smooth, flowing gravel to abrasive surfaces that test every ounce of driver skill, tyre strategy, and mechanical endurance. With no previous data or formbook, this is uncharted territory for teams and engineers alike.
  • As the final round of the season, this rally could decide both the Drivers’ and Manufacturers’ Championships. One mistake could end a title dream. One perfect drive could make a legend.
  • Saudi Arabia is no stranger to motorsport, already home to Formula 1, Dakar Rally, Formula E, Extreme E, GT World Challenge and WTCR. Now, with WRC joining the roster, the Kingdom deepens its commitment to elite racing and its Vision 2030 ambition to become a global hub for sport and adventure tourism.
  • Expect wide, sweeping roads, blind crests, and shifting sand, all set against a cinematic backdrop of Red Sea coastlines and desert plains. Add in changing light and unpredictable grip, and Rally Saudi Arabia becomes more than a race. It’s a mental, physical, and mechanical battle to the very end.
