How it works

Results → model → forecast

From each rally's finishing order to a probability for every crew — here is the path each forecast travels before it reaches you.

  1. 1

    WRC results

    Rally classifications, the surface run (gravel, tarmac or snow) and championship standings, ingested after every round.

  2. 2

    The model

    A crew-form model — recent form, the rally's surface and championship position carry the signal. It re-trains as the season unfolds, then weighs every crew in the field.

  3. 3

    Rally forecast

    Probabilities for win, podium, top six and top ten — one classification for every rally.

Questions

Good to know

Is this betting or gambling advice?

No. RaceIQ WRC is a personal project published for education and entertainment. The forecasts are model outputs and should not be used for betting or any form of gambling. The project is not affiliated with the WRC, the FIA, the WRC Promoter, or any team.

How accurate is it, really?

Every predicted finishing order is graded against the official classification once the rally is over. The live numbers are published in full on the accuracy report, including the rallies where the model got it wrong.

Why is the WRC a good fit for a model?

The championship pits a deep field of Rally1 crews against each other over a repeatable calendar, but every round changes surface — gravel, tarmac or snow. Recent crew form, the surface underfoot and championship position carry a strong, learnable signal, and reading them together is exactly the kind of problem a model is built for.

How fresh are the forecasts?

Forecasts are regenerated every round and time-stamped, so you always know how recent a prediction is. “Next up” is the upcoming rally; the classification lands as soon as the result is official.

Is it open source?

Yes. The full data pipeline, the model, and the exact accuracy scoring are public on GitHub, so every figure on this site is reproducible. RaceIQ WRC runs on the same MotorsportVerse core that powers RaceIQ F1.

What data feeds the model?

Rally classifications, the surface each round is run on, and championship standings, ingested after every round of the WRC season.
