FIA World RX 2024: World RX of Turkiye

Originally, the 2024 FIA World Rallycross Championship would have been held in China but for some reason, the finale was moved to Istanbul, Turkiye. Despite the sudden venue change, the final destination of this season's "Battle of Technologies" theme will decide whether Johan Kristofferson has the right to be crowned champion and prove that internal combustion RX cars are better than EV RX ones.

In the penultimate race day, Ole Christian Veiby is the winner followed by Niclas Gronholm and Kevin Hansen. The final day of the season delivered the biggest upset no one saw coming as Juha Rytkönen, the Finnish wild card, trumped the likes of RX giants Johan Kristofferson and Timmy Hansen.

Congratulations to Johan Kristofferson, the seven-time World RX champion. He proved that ICE RX cars are better than EV RX cars in the Battle of Technologies theme.

The 2024 FIA World RX season is over. See you next season.
