2025 World Rally-Raid Championship


The 2025 World Rally-Raid Championship was the fourth season of the annual competition for rally raid events sanctioned by both the FIA and FIM. The Amaury Sport Organization was in the fourth of a five-year contract to promote the championship. The season started with the 2025 Dakar Rally, which was won in cars by Yazeed Al-Rajhi and Timo Gottschalk and by Daniel Sanders on bikes.

Calendar

The calendar for the 2025 season featured five rally-raid events. Like in the previous seasons, the Dakar Rally once again hosted the opening event, while the South Africa Safari Rally was added to the calendar, replacing Desafío Ruta 40.
