WHAT IS RX2?

The RX2 International Series presented by Cooper Tires is the leading official support series to the FIA World Rallycross Championship presented by Monster Energy, developing and nurturing the discipline’s future stars.

All drivers compete in identical 310bhp machinery, with a single-round Supercar prize drive awarded to the eventual champion and a Supercar test day on offer to the second and third-placed finishers.

The 2020 calendar comprises seven events, with the first six taking place throughout Europe before a spectacular South African season finale.
 

BUILDING FOR THE FUTURE

RX2’s primary goal is to develop the rallycross stars of the future, but organisers are similarly committed to ensuring the series remains relevant and attractive to competitors and stakeholders in an ever-evolving motorsport landscape.

With that in mind, the future vision for RX2 – covering the next four years
from 2021 to 2024 – will be presented in the first quarter of 2020, maintaining the well-proven format that has made the series the success it is today while continuing to innovate and move with the times. 

 

RX2 provides the perfect stepping stone for drivers climbing the rallycross ladder.
In recent years, the series has welcomed competitors from disciplines as diverse as
stage and cross-country rallying, cross-kart, folk race, karting, single-seaters and even SuperMoto – as well, obviously, as rallycross itself, attracting talent from the RX Academy, Super1600 and TouringCar.

While from a wide variety of backgrounds, all RX2 drivers share a common goal – that of reaching the very pinnacle of the sport, the FIA World Rallycross Championship.

As a series, RX2 works hard to foster ever-closer links with World RX and World Championship promoter IMG, with RX2 drivers and teams regularly invited to official activities from pre- event activation to autograph sessions and pre and post-race press conferences.

Taking place in front of the World Championship teams, RX2 offers aspiring rallycross superstars and independent competitors alike an extremely accessible, affordable and direct route to the top of the sport and is the perfect place for drivers to prove their potential in front of a loyal, engaged and enthusiastic audience.
