Official Probite British Esports Rally Championship returns for 2025

• The official Probite eBRC competition is back for 2025
• EA Sports WRC, WRC2 class cars, six rounds
• Open to Motorsport UK Esports members
• Winner receives rally passenger ride and trophy at the British Rally Championship Awards

Motorsport UK Esports has announced the return of the official Probite British Esports Rally Championship – this time with quicker cars and a new format.

Unlike last season’s competition, where the six rounds were spread across March to October, in 2025 the events will be held on back-to-back weeks, starting from Monday, 4th August.

Using the EA SPORTS WRC game (on any platform) and open to those with a Motorsport UK Esports membership, the winner will receive an eBRC trophy at the season-ending British Rally Championship Awards event, plus a rally passenger ride. Further prizes are set to be announced at a later date.

Each round will consist of seven stages, and the setup means no stage restarts – competitors have one attempt only.

Car selection has opened up for this season. 2024’s competition used the M-Sport Ford Fiesta Rally3 exclusively. This time around, the quicker WRC2 class will be used, and any model in this category can be selected. Within the game, that means:

• Citroën C3 Rally2
• Ford Fiesta Rally2
• Hyundai i20 N Rally2
• ŠKODA Fabia Rally2 Evo
• ŠKODA Fabia RS Rally2
• Toyota GR Yaris Rally2 (Part of the 2024 Locations & Cars Content Pack DLC)
• Volkswagen Polo GTI R5

Last year, Tommi Mäkinen won the title – no, not four-time real-world World Rally Champion Tommi Mäkinen.

Registrations are open now via Motorsport UK for members ahead of the first round.
