FIA Euro RX Of Ireland

What is Rallycross?

Rallycross isn’t like anything else in motorsport — it’s raw, relentless, and completely unpredictable. These are short, explosive races where there’s no time to settle in — it’s flat-out from the second the lights go out. On a surface split between dirt and tarmac, drivers are constantly fighting for grip as they throw their cars sideways through tight corners and power down high-speed straights. Every race starts with a standing launch, meaning an entire grid of cars rockets forward at the same time, all battling for the same piece of track into the first corner.

With cars capable of hitting 0–100km/h in under two seconds, the action is instant and unforgiving. From that first corner on, it’s chaos — door-to-door battles, aggressive moves, and drivers pushing right to the edge of control. One small mistake is all it takes to lose everything, and that’s what makes rallycross so addictive to watch. Every race is a full-throttle fight where positions change corner by corner, and nothing is decided until the very last moment.

Why You Need to Be There

This isn’t just racing — this is pure intensity.

• Door-to-door action from lights out
• Last-corner overtakes that change everything
• High-speed incidents and razor-thin margins
• Strategic Joker Lap decisions that can win or lose a race

And for the first time in decades, you can witness it all live in Ireland.
