Changes to Technical Regulations for R5/Rally 2 Cars

Competitors are reminded that from 1st January 2026 Motorsport UK have updated the class description for Class 1 cars:

Homologated (and formerly homologated) FIA Rally 2 and R5 cars and any derivatives*.

FIA S2000 specification cars and any derivatives

All World Rally cars (must comply with their homologation)

* Derivatives of Rally2/R5 specification cars permitted only until 31st December 2025. RHD conversions which retain all other aspects of the homologation will remain valid beyond this date.

* Exceptionally, Motorsport UK may grant a dispensation to use non-homologated parts to replace homologated

components which are no longer available. Details on request from Motorsport UK Technical Department

This generally means that Class 1 cars will have to run to their homolgated specification including 32mm restrictors and Pop Off Valves.
