Sporting Regulations

[edit | edit source]

The Junior WRC was open for drivers born on or after 1 January 1994 and had not competed as a priority 1 (P1) driver designated to score Manufacturer points before the first JWRC round, no such restrictions were set for co-drivers.[13] All crews once again contested identical Ford Fiesta Rally3 cars prepared by the M-Sport Poland for the winning prize of four fully-funded Ford Fiesta Rally2 drives with a tyre package and a pre-event test.[14]

Scoring system

[edit | edit source]

Points were awarded to the top ten classified finishers. An additional point was given for every stage win. The best four results out of five counted towards the final drivers’ and co-drivers’ standings. However, all points gained from stage wins were retained. Double points were awarded at the season's finale to those with at least 3 previous 2023 JWRC round starts. [13]
