2019 Junior WRC Championship
The 2019 FIA Junior WRC Championship was the seventh season of Junior WRC, a rallying championship governed by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile, running in support of the World Rally Championship.
The championship was open to drivers under the age of thirty with no such restriction for co-drivers. Crews competed in identical one-litre Ford Fiesta R2s built and maintained by M-Sport. The championship was contested over five selected WRC rounds with the winning crew awarded a new Ford Fiesta R5 car, tyre package, free fuel and a registration to compete in the 2020 WRC3 Championship.
Jan Solans and Mauro Barreiro won the drivers' and co-drivers' championships, beating Tom Kristensson and Henrik Appelskog by eighteen points. In the Trophy of Nations, Sweden beat Spain by six point to become the inaugural winners.
The final 2019 Junior WRC Championship calendar consisted of five events of the 2019 World Rally Championship.
The 2019 calendar was heavily revised from the 2018 schedule. The championship dropped from six rounds to five. The Rallies of Portugal and Turkey were removed from the calendar, while events in Italy and Wales were added in their place.
Organisers of the Tour de Corse announced plans for a new route, with up to three-quarters of the 2019 route being revised from the 2018 rally.
The following crews were entered into the championship:
All teams competed with an identical car built by M-Sport. The team announced that a new model of Ford Fiesta was introduced for 2019, one that was still built to R2 specifications, but featured a new engine and drivetrain. The new engine package was capable of producing 149 kW (199.8 bhp) of power, up from the 127 kW (170.3 bhp) produced by the engine used in 2018.
