Calendar changes

The championship was expected to be expanded to fourteen rounds, with eight Europe-based rallies and six fly-away events covering the season.[14] However, the number of the events was reduced to thirteen following a lengthy delay of the calendar.[15] The anticipated rally based in Jeddah in Saudi Arabia was absent from the calendar.[16]

Rally Mexico is due to return to the calendar.

Rally Mexico is confirmed to return to championship after missing the 2021 and 2022 championships.[17] The organizers of the rally had previously held a national event in 2022 in the bid of a 2023 return.[18]
Rally Chile would rejoin the calendar after the Chilean protests and COVID-19 pandemic respectively ruled out the event in 2020 and 2021.[19][20]
Central Europe Rally, a tri-nation event running a day each in Germany, Austria and Czech Republic, was introduced into the championship, replacing Rally de Catalunya.[21] The rally would be based out of southeast Germany, in the city of Passau in Bavaria, and is set to run on tarmac.[22]
Rally New Zealand, a round of the 2022 season, would not be included on the calendar, but the organizers are seeking an opportunity for a 2024 return as a part of the rotation program with Rally Australia.[23]
Ypres Rally Belgium, which has been a part of the championship for the last two seasons, dropped off the calendar and would instead be featured for the 2023 British Rally Championship.[24]

Several rally organizers also expressed their interests to return to the championship, including events in Argentina, Australia, Northern Ireland and Germany.[25][26][27][28] Bids of Argentina and Northern Ireland were ultimately failed.[29][30] In addition to the candidate events, the WRC Promoter GmbH was also working on the calendar expansion to the Middle East and United States.[31]

Location changes

The headquarter of the Rally Italia Sardegna would be once again moved from Alghero to Olbia.[32] The 2020 event was previously based in Olbia as a result of major route revisions due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[33]
The 2023 edition of the Safari Rally is set to be based at the Lakeside town of Naivasha.[34] The rally was previously based in the Kenyan capital Nairobi.[35]

Scoring system

Points are awarded to the top ten classified finishers in each event. Power Stage points are also awarded in the drivers' and co-drivers' championships, with three points awarded to the first place finisher on the stage, two to second place, and one to third. A team has to enter two cars to score points in an event. Drivers and teams must nominate a scoring rally when they enter the event and the best six scores from seven nominated rallies will count towards the final classification. Registered drivers are able to enter additional rallies with Priority 2 status without scoring points.[1]
