The Italian Federation has allocated prize money for the national championships for modern cars. The funding for the Italian Rally Promotion Championship and the Italian Rally Trophy has been increased. However, the prize money for the top finishers in the Italian Absolute Rally Championship Sparco (CIAR), including the Junior and Two-Wheel Drive categories, along with the Italian Gravel Rally Championship (CIRT) and the Italian Rally Cup Final, remains unchanged.

The Sports Committee of the Automobile Club d’Italia has approved the proposal of the ACI Sport Rally Commission for the definition of prize money for the new sports season, dedicated to the national series for modern cars. Thanks to the contribution allocated by CONI and the support guaranteed by the organizers of the individual titled races, the total prize money for the 2025 rally season will be €470,000. A substantial sum that offers continuity compared to the recent past for all competitions, particularly with significant incentives dedicated to the Italian Rally Promotion Championship and the Italian Rally Trophy, making the race for national titles and top positions even more interesting. The prize money defined by ACI Sport will be supplemented in the near future by prizes made available by manufacturers in individual championships, which are still being defined.

Specifically, a total of €310,000 in prizes is allocated for the 2025 Sparco Italian Absolute Rally Championship. Of this amount, €75,000 is reserved for the top four overall finishers (€30,000 for 1st, €20,000 for 2nd, €15,000 for 3rd, and €10,000 for 4th). Additionally, €75,000 is designated for the winner of the CIAR Junior category, which will be used to support their participation in international programs organized by ACI Team Italia in the following season. A further €20,000 is reserved for the winner of the CIAR Two-Wheel Drive category. Furthermore, a substantial €140,000 will be distributed among the top five finishers in the Italian Rally Promotion Championship (€50,000 for 1st, €35,000 for 2nd, €30,000 for 3rd, €15,000 for 4th, and €10,000 for 5th).

For the 2025 season, the prize money allocated to the Italian Rally Trophy has been further increased to €95,000. This represents a significant boost, with the winner set to receive €40,000, the runner-up €25,000, and third place €15,000. The calendar and format of the trophy have also been revamped. Similarly, the Italian Rally Terra Championship now offers a total prize fund of €45,000, with €15,000 going to the winner, €10,000 to the runner-up, and €5,000 for third place.

Both championships will award prizes to the top three overall finishers, as well as a special prize of €15,000 to the Under 25 Two-Wheel Drive category winner in both the Italian Rally Trophy and the Italian Rally Terra Championship. This prize is linked to participation in the 2026 CIAR Junior.

The prize money for the National Final of the Italian Rally Cup remains unchanged, offering €10,000 to the overall winner and an additional €10,000 to the first-placed Under 25 Two-Wheel Drive competitor, also linked to participation in the 2026 CIAR Junior.
