The long wait for South American motorsport enthusiasts appears to be nearing its end as Rally Argentina prepares to reclaim its prestigious spot on the World Rally Championship calendar. The regional government of Cordoba has successfully secured a multi-year agreement with championship promoters, though final ratification from the FIA is scheduled to be officially confirmed next March.
As an essential stepping stone toward the 2028 comeback, a candidate rally valid for the CODASUR championship will take place in March 2027 under strict supervision. The governing body will meticulously evaluate sporting organization, local infrastructure, and comprehensive safety measures to ensure every parameter meets the rigorous standards required for hosting a world-class motorsport event.
Planning is already underway to map out the demanding routes that made the South American fixture legendary, with historic stages like El Condor poised to test the nerve of top-tier crews. First held back in 1980, the rally in Argentina has always boasted a unique character defined by the sheer passion of local fans lining the mountain passes.
WRC Promoter CEO Eric Boullier expressed profound enthusiasm regarding the ongoing efforts to bring the championship back to such an iconic destination. "Argentina has always held a special place in WRC history, and very few events can match the passion of the fans in Cordoba or the electric atmosphere surrounding its legendary special stages; we are truly excited to bring the championship back here," Boullier stated regarding the milestone agreement.
The long-term commitment goes far beyond merely reviving a familiar fixture on the calendar, focusing instead on sustainable growth and reconnecting the sport with passionate followers. "This multi-year commitment goes way beyond simply returning to a familiar destination, it is about building a sustainable, long-term future for Rally Argentina and bringing the WRC back closer to a country where rallying means so much to so many people," Boullier added, thanking Governor Martin Llaryora and local sporting authorities.
Local leadership remains fully confident in the region's capability to deliver a world-class spectacle when the premier rally series officially returns to South American soil in the coming years, marking a triumphant new chapter for the sport.
