The 2024 FIA World Rally Championship is a motorsport championship that is the fifty-second occurrence of the World Rally Championship, an international rallying series organised by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) and WRC Promoter GmbH. Teams and crews compete for the World Rally Championships for Drivers, Co-drivers and Manufacturers. Crews are free to compete in cars complying with Groups Rally1 to Rally5 regulations; however, only manufacturers competing with Rally1 cars are eligible to score points in the manufacturers' championship. The championship began in January 2024 with the Monte Carlo Rally and would conclude in November 2024 with the Rally Japan. The series is supported by the WRC2 and WRC3 categories at every round of the championship and by Junior WRC at selected events.
Kalle Rovanperä and Jonne Halttunen are the reigning drivers' and co-drivers' champions, having secured their second championship titles at the 2023 Central European Rally. However, they would only contest at selected events. Toyota are the defending manufacturers' champions.
With four rounds to go, Thierry Neuville and Martijn Wydaeghe respectively lead the drivers' and co-drivers' championship over Sébastien Ogier and Vincent Landais by twenty-seven points. Ott Tänak and Martin Järveoja are third, a further four points behind. In the manufacturers' championship, Hyundai Shell Mobis WRT hold a twenty-point lead over the reigning manufacturers' champions Toyota Gazoo Racing WRT, with M-Sport Ford WRT in third.
