As a service to the sport we all love and follow, Rally-Raid Network posts numerous media releases from a wide variety of sources on our website. Due to the large number, and some times short time available, it is nearly impossible to review each public release. These articles are written by reporters or press officers who work for various organizers, teams, drivers, riders, and other parties, and they do not necessarily reflect the opinions of Rally-Raid Network.
Cross-Country Rally
As for the W2RC Regulations, the Cross-Country Rally Regulations were also revised to include adherence to the the FIA Environmental programme. The two-star level of Environmental Accreditation will be compulsory for World Baja Cup organisers when entering the championship, and three-star from 2027. Two-star will be compulsory from 2026 and three-star from 2028 for Regional Baja Cups.
As part of the proposals submitted by the Road Sport Committee, a new, less restrictive set of technical regulations for the Stock group – the former T2 – will allow manufacturers to homologate cross-country vehicles based on modern 4WD standard vehicles, modified to increase their capability and reliability, with a controlled budget for the customers.
With the direction given by FIA President Mohammed Ben Sulayem, revised technical regulations were also approved for the SSVs – formerly T4 – with the aim to come back to less transformed and more affordable vehicles compared to the current competition cars and to offer a genuinely accessible access class.
Updates to the 2024 calendars of the FIA World and Middle East Baja Cups were approved. Click here to view the changes.
