Nice video explaining the classes. As it is often not known to the public how the classes work, especially since the classes changed a few times in recent years. I find it a bit strange that the Rally5 cars also have sequential gearboxes. So the entry level is too far remote from road cars, unlike the former groupN classes, makes it hard for newcomers to find where to start, while the Rally5 cars are too close to the Rally4 cars. But that is how it is. Hopefully the FIA will address this in future.
Typically, it’s an outside organization that builds and sells them. For example, Citroën is built, sold and run by Saintéloc. I’m not sure about Renault specifically.
@@rallybeast Not quite. But what an interesting subject this has turned out to be. But especially in the Rally5 to Rally2 classes it is usually the manufacturer itself to develop the cars and build the chassis. Rally1 is usually by a more or less independant organisation, though here it is difficult to draw the lines. I.e. Toyota Gazoo Racing builds the rally1 cars in Finland.... Ford is a bit the exception as M-Sport develops all classes for them. Renault develops and builds the Rally5+4 chassis, they were run so far by TokSport in Germany. The Rally3 Clio in 2023 however is run by Motorsport Italia. Escpecially in these lower classes it may well be that the cars arrive as a kit to the teams. In the case of Citroen, development and chassis building is done by Citroen Racing in Versailles. Then the cars are handed to teams that run them. This is often Saintélog indeed. But in the case of Mads Ostberg's recent programs it is TRT from Hungary, in the case of Yohan Rossel's WRC2 campaigns it is PH Sport and in Yoann Bonato's programs it is CHL.
Let’s hope the FIA will keep the hybrid system until at least 2030, and not make it full electric like RX(they have been thinking that). It will kill the sport, this sound is amazing
From my understanding, hybrid will be the way forward. Look at F1, they’ve had hybrid for a while and even in 2026, they’re maintaining an ICE. Rally is about 10 years behind them.
@@rallybeast Not only that, Formula E has exclusivity contract on fully EV and hydrogen powered single seater championship until 2039, so at the very least until that year, F1 is gonna keep ICEs (unless a whole different technology shows up). If rallying stays behind, we can be looking at 20+ more years of ICEs in rallying. Plus, I think the ICE ban in road cars will be shifted forward a few years, if not outright lifted (possibly allowing at the very least hybrids to stay in production for much longer). Either way, I believe the future is in hydrogen. Toyota is already testing it in the hydrogen powered GR Yaris, even taking it to rally stages (for example in the WRC Ypres Rally Belgium). Barely any changes to the standard ICE, more power than the standard ICE, the same sound and zero emissions. That's the way, not fully electric.
yeah I'm good with having a seperate electric championship but the sound that we now have is stellar. but I heard they were testing with carbon neutral fuels
Very helpful insight! The extra power of Rally1 cars is really something to cheer about but I was a bit disappointed by the lack of central active dif and the aero downgrade that make these cars more prone to understeering. Keep up the good work!
You and me both! The previous generation were so exciting to watch because of the aero. It was just amazing to watch them go through mid- and high-speed corners. It was spectacular!
The understeering in rally 1 cars you mentioned, seems to be a huge challenge for the drivers. Seen a lot of rally retirements because of understeer this year.
Not really. I talked with few drivers and They said It is compansated mostly by set up of axile differentials and suspension geometry and this construction has clutch which disconect 4WD ( rear wheels) when handbrake is pulled by driver. Only active differentials have slight Advantage over stiff 4WD used by Rally 2 and Rally 1 cars. Passive center diferential ads weight and it is still 80-90% blocked all the time so it has sllightly Advantage in tight corners on dry tarmac but it is loosing on slippery and lose surfaces. The only one S2000 car with center differential ( previous class before Rally 2 cars ( it was called R5 cars ( with 2.0 natural aspirated engines or 1,6 Turbocharged engines Fiat Punto S2000 was inferior to he cars with stiff 4WD like Skoda Fabia S2000 and Peugeot 207 S2000. Driver use handbrake in tight corners. No matter what kind of 4WD cars have.
Very well put, good job! Just a minor correction at 7:46 and 8:46 - new aero and no center diff was introduced with 2017 class aka WRC+. And 9:21 R1 cars are 1260kg

Love FIA's take on hybrid cars for making more power and really nice sounds in Rally 1. Also, if more divisions make it easier to dream of competing some day, I'll take it! Nice explanation, bro. Thanks!
This misses a fundamental and salient point that the vast majority of rally drivers start in clubman's sport where anyone can purchase a top flight WRC clone and compete at national level with often the opportunity to compete overseas, i.e. WRC without the status. For many rally drivers progressing through the sport using a Rally 3, 4, or 5 car it will be a downgrade especially as they will be run by independent teams that will be no better than what the clubman may be already competing with. In Formula circuit racing the clubman can't really experience the higher echelon cars without moving into the defined category and being on the Formula ladder. It seems to me that FIA are fixing a problem that doesn't exist with the big risk that international rallying will lose more interest through dilution. Who will sponsor a Rally 5 car on international events with little or no coverage? The international sponsors will see the class as not having a high enough profile and the national sponsors will see that it is irrelevant to sponsor a car internationally when they have no presence there. If the system was for progression then the likes of Kalle Rovanpera would not have been the WRC champion in 2022 because he would still be competing in Rally 2 or 3. Oliver Solberg would not have gone straight into a WRC 1 car after competing in national rallycross.
I haven't watched or followed much in around 5 years but started watching some highlights recently. Thought to myself "Why the hell are they plowing all over the place like that?" One of my favorite parts of Rally was watching the drivers/tech in the cars nearly seem to defy physics as they held the nose down and in. That's kind of gone now :/. Not sure how you can take away the center diff but give them more power? Seems counter intuitive.
Agreed! When they started the last generation, those cars had some pretty big problems as well. They were able to figure them out, so I'm sure it will just take some time.
M-Sport has a facility there that build most of the cars aside from the Rally1 and a few Rally2 cars. M-sport Poland built the Rally3 from the ground up.

It’s really only for short bursts of power when the driver wants to use it. But it needs to recharge before they can use it again. Most use it right off the start.
Not to be un tasteful here but when he mentioned the lack of central differential causing more understeer gotta wonder if it had something to do with the crash in Croatia
That's an interesting observation, and it very well could have contributed to that. I also believe it was a bit of a freak accident since the chances of that happening the way that it did are very low.
can someone explain to me why most of the cars in the video are registered in poland? is there some kind of loophole that requires polish registration?
M-Sport has an arm of the company in Poland where they build all of the lower-level cars. M-Sport Poland actually completely developed and built the first Rally3 car.
The chassis of a Rally1 car isn't the same as the safety cell. People claim wrongly that the teams just put bodywork around a spec spaceframe. That is wrong, every team builds their own chassis. Only the compact dynamics hybrid box is spec.
That's a legitimate point that I hadn't thought of! It definitely makes them more difficult to drive and requires the drivers to pay a lot more attention.
Are there no rules and setups for electric cars joining the battle? It is a shame especially full vector systems as well as liPo Batteries would make the whole sport far more extreme easily outpacing the old Group B era.
Not currently, and I will probably be a long time before they have them. One of the challenges with rally is that people need to know when the cars are coming, so all the cars would need a siren, which wouldn't be nearly as exciting to watch.
Well, full-electric rally cars are already a thing. Opel has one and runs a championship in Germany if I'm not mistaken. However, I don't see that as the way to go for the WRC. I suspect that hydrogen powered rally cars will be the direction they go in which I believe would be the right decision.
There are a small handful of electric rally cars out there, but I agree that WRC will most likely go a different direction. It could even be more efficient and powerful evolutions of hybrids.
interesting topic, well recorded voice and some good information. However there's lots of room for improvement.

Lastly, inserting a graphic that tells us the cost, weight, power and other differences alongside the pyramid will help relay the information better.
Correction regarding R4 car; it's 1.6L turbo engine, 5-speed sequential gearbox, 4WD and large suspension travel to be competitive on gravel and tarmac. You qouted it as 2WD

But that is how it is. Hopefully the FIA will address this in future.
Most (newer) road cars have automatic gearboxes these days. A sequential gearbox is closer to that than a classic H pattern + clutch box.
Doesn't Renault sell a pre-made rally car for these specs a while back?
