2025 World Rally Championship

The 2025 FIA World Rally Championship was the 53rd season of the World Rally Championship, an international rallying series organised by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) and WRC Promoter GmbH. Teams and crews compete for the World Rally Championships for Drivers, Co-drivers and Manufacturers. Crews were free to compete in cars complying with Groups Rally1 to Rally5 regulations; however, only manufacturers competing with Rally1 cars were eligible to score points in the manufacturers' championship. The championship began in January 2025 with the Monte Carlo Rally and concluded in November 2025 with the calendar newcomer Rally Saudi Arabia. The series was supported by the WRC2 and WRC3 categories at every round of the championship and by Junior WRC at selected events.

Thierry Neuville and Martijn Wydaeghe were the reigning drivers' and co-drivers' champions, having secured their first championship titles at the 2024 Rally Japan. Toyota were the defending manufacturers' champions.

At the conclusion of the championship, Sébastien Ogier and Vincent Landais won the World Rally Championship titles at the 2025 Rally Saudi Arabia. It was Ogier's ninth title, which tied him with Sébastien Loeb for the most championships won, and Landais' first. Elfyn Evans and Scott Martin were second, trailing by four points. Kalle Rovanperä and Jonne Halttunen were third, a further twenty-one points behind. In the manufacturers' championship, Toyota Gazoo Racing WRT successfully defended their title, holding a 224-point advantage over Hyundai Shell Mobis WRT, with M-Sport Ford WRT in third.

The 2025 season was contested over fourteen rounds across Europe, Africa, South America and Asia.

The calendar was expanded to fourteen rounds, including five flyaway events. This was originally planned for the 2024 season, but WRC Promoter GmbH retained the total of thirteen events in the hopes of attracting more Rally1 entries.

The following manufacturers contested the championship under Rally1 regulations.

The following crews entered in Rally1 cars as privateers or under arrangement with the manufacturers.

M-Sport retained the crew of Grégoire Munster and Louis Louka for another complete season. They were joined by Josh McErlean and Eoin Treacy as the team's second full-time crew, in collaboration with Motorsport Ireland Rally Academy. The crew of Mārtiņš Sesks and Renārs Francis also competed on a part-time basis, with the pair starting their season at Rally Sweden.
