Calendar: Twelve events on three continents

The 2018 FIA World Rallycross Championship promises suspense galore once again. Up to 25 drivers are battling for victories at twelve events on three continents. Silverstone (GB) and Austin (USA) are two new venues on the calendar.

Mattias Ekström and his team, EKS Audi Sport, are taking on fierce competition once more in the FIA World RX. This season, the two EKS campaigners are joined on the grid again by up to 23 other drivers. “Volkswagen and Peugeot have no doubt done their homework, and a few privateer teams are probably going to try to make life difficult for us too,” says Ekström.

A total of twelve rounds are scheduled this year. Fans are eagerly awaiting the two new events at Silverstone (United Kingdom) and Austin (United States). Aside from the round in the United States, the World RX will visit two other venues outside of Europe: Trois-Rivières (Canada) and Cape Town (South Africa).
