Common card · No. 263896

Rally2 (previously known as R5) is a technical specification of rally car determined by the FIA. It features 1.6L turbo engines, four-wheel drive and a maximum weight-to-power ratio of 4.2 kg/hp. Rally2 cars are used in the World Rally Championship, exclusively in its WRC2 support championship; the FIA continental championships and in national championships. The technical regulations were developed ahead of the 2012 rallying season and known as R5 within the scope of Group R.

This meant that any existing R5 car homologated or approved since their introduction continue to be used in Rally2 level competition. R5 cars were first introduced as an intended replacement for the S2000 car. In years prior to 2019, 'Rally 2' was used to describe the rules and scenario allowing a rally competitor to restart a rally the day following a retirement. This was renamed 're-start after retirement' in FIA regulations...
