Rally enthusiasts will have the unique opportunity to witness the newly-crowned world champions Thierry Neuville (WRC) and Sami Pajari (WRC2) in action from December 6-8, 2024, at the Monza Rally Show. Both the Belgian and the Finn will be showcasing their skills, driving the Hyundai i20 N Rally1 Hybrid and the Toyota GR Yaris Rally1 Hybrid, respectively. Also participating is France’s Sebastien Ogier, who will be behind the wheel of the Toyota GR Yaris Rally1 Hybrid that clinched the WRC constructors’ title.
Pirelli, in collaboration with WRC teams, has confirmed the lineup of drivers attending the event at the Monza circuit to celebrate the Milan-based company’s fourth year as the exclusive tyre supplier for the WRC. This prestigious list includes Spain’s Dani Sordo in a Hyundai, France’s Adrien Formaux piloting a Ford Puma Rally1 Hybrid, and Finland’s Kalle Rovanpera, who became the youngest-ever world champion at the age of 22 years and one day in 2022. On this special occasion, Toyota Gazoo Team Principal Jari-Matti Latvala will also suit up and return to the track.
Over the course of three days, the WRC drivers will each take a turn on the Monza Rally Show course, accompanied by guests in the passenger seat. The event culminates on Sunday when Neuville, Ogier, Pajari (in a Rally2 car), Sordo, and Formaux will face off in the Masters’ Show along the main straight.
The Monza Rally Show kicks off with the shakedown on Friday, December 6. The event’s schedule includes 9 special stages, totaling 154.38 timed kilometers.
