WRC 2025: Rally Saudi Arabia

The 2025 World Rally Championship concludes with the WRC-first Rally Saudi Arabia. This season's finale marked a huge milestone as Saudi Arabia became the first Middle Eastern country to host a WRC race weekend, the 39th overall country to do so after Paraguay earlier this season.

Extreme Middle Eastern heat, desert setting, no hints where to start and finish, the Rally Saudi Arabia is by far the most challenging WRC event as drivers are using their wits to survive through the harsh Arabic setting by all means.

The Rally Saudi Arabia ended with Hyundai N nabbed the first two podiums, with Thierry Neuville the winner and Adrien Fourmaux the second placer.

Although he finished 3rd in the Rally Saudi Arabia, Sebastien Ogier earned the right to be crowned the 2025 WRC Champion. This marks his ninth time earning the title.

And that concludes the 2025 World Rally Championship. See you in January 2026.
