2024 World Rally-Raid Championship

2024 World Rally-Raid Championship
Previous:	2023	Next:	2025

The 2024 World Rally-Raid Championship is the third season of the annual competition for rally raid events sanctioned by both the FIA and FIM. The Amaury Sport Organization is in the third of a five-year contract to promote the championship.

A major overhaul of the class name terminology took place before the season, with the T1, T2, T3, T4, and T5 categories being renamed to the Ultimate, Stock, Challenger, SSV, and Truck categories for 2024.

Calendar

The calendar for the 2024 season features five rally-raid events. The prestigious Dakar Rally once again hosted the opening event, with the Abu Dhabi Desert Challenge, Desafio Ruta 40, and Rallye du Maroc events returning to the calendar. The Portugal-based BP Ultimate Rally-Raid would be added to the schedule.
