Rallye Monte-Carlo highlights

Watch highlights from Rallye Monte-Carlo, the first stop on the WRC calendar – and always unpredictable.

  • Date: January 22-25, 2026
  • Location: Monte Carlo, Monaco
  • Surface: Asphalt
  • Round: 1 of 14
Oliver Solberg won the 94th Rallye Monte-Carlo, finishing 51.8s clear of team-mate Elfyn Evans, with Sébastien Ogier third as Toyota Gazoo Racing locked out the podium. Solberg became the youngest-ever winner of the event in the modern WRC era after leading from early in the rally.
The event lived up to its reputation with highly variable conditions: snow, ice, slush and rain created treacherous stretches across the French Alps.
In championship terms the win gave Solberg a maximum haul to open the 2026 FIA World Rally Championship, establishing an early lead in the standings and signalling Toyota’s strength in depth as the season moves on to the only pure-winter round of the calendar at Rally Sweden.
