The first ever Rally Estonia was held in 2010 and has since grown into one of the most prestigious events in the WRC calendar—highly appreciated by drivers, teams, and fans alike. The 2025 WRC Delfi Rally Estonia, taking place from July 17 to 20, will mark the event’s 15th anniversary. To celebrate this milestone, organizers have great news for rally fans: for the first time, there’s an opportunity to purchase special edition rally passes. Among the regular passes, fans can now choose a unique limited edition fan pass featuring none other than our national hero, Ott Tänak. And for our southern neighbors, there’s a fan pass honoring Latvia’s top rally driver, Mārtiņš Sesks. Both passes are strictly limited to 1000 pieces, each individually numbered for added collector’s value.
Over the years, thousands of blue-black-white Estonian flags have waved along the Rally Estonia stages, and Ott Tänak and Martin Järveoja have enjoyed an unmatched level of home crowd support. Now, dedicated fans can take their support to the next level by securing these exclusive fan passes. Latvian fans have also played a significant role in the Rally Estonia atmosphere—and even had the chance to cheer on a Latvian victory. While Mārtiņš Sesks has not yet claimed an overall win at Rally Estonia, he did win the Junior WRC category in 2020—the same year the rally joined the official FIA WRC calendar. Ott Tänak and Martin Järveoja were the overall winners that year.
Ott Tänak, World Rally Champion: "A Limited Edition fan pass bearing my name is something very special—chances like this don’t come around often. I’m very grateful to the Rally Estonia team for making it happen. Martin and I will absolutely give our all to make sure the fans wearing these passes have something to be proud of at Rally Estonia.
A home rally always brings extra pressure, but also a huge boost of motivation. Our goal is clear—we just have to be ready for the challenge, and I truly believe anything is possible."
Mārtiņš Sesks, M-Sport World Rally Team: “I think all of those things where we can make something special brings more added value. This year Rally Estonia will be our home event because that´s the closest to our home. I think it will be amazing that we see a lot of Latvian flags around Estonia.''
Really waiting for this event because all our friends and family will come to that event and Latvian fans. Special pass will be amazing and I want one of that as well. “
Ott Tänak and Mārtiņš Sesks fan passes are now available on the official WRC Rally Estonia e-shop, with the price of €89. Fans can see the full variety of different access passes on the Rally Estonia e-shop.
The organizers of Rally Estonia, which began in 2010 as a round of the Estonian Rally Championship, have aimed high from the very start. In the early years, their goal was to attract top-level drivers. The first winners of Rally Estonia were Markko Märtin and Kristo Kraag. Over the years, notable competitors have included two-time winners Mads Østberg and Jonas Andersson, as well as Thierry Neuville and Nicolas Gilsoul. Ott Tänak holds the record for the most Rally Estonia wins, having taken the top step of the podium four times—once with Raigo Mõlder and three times with Martin Järveoja.
In 2014, Rally Estonia debuted in the FIA European Rally Championship and was immediately awarded Best Event of the Year. In 2019, it became a WRC promotional event, and in 2020, Estonia hosted its first-ever official FIA WRC round. This transformation—from a national championship event to a world-class WRC rally—is the result of a strong team effort supported by private sponsors and the Estonian government. The goal has always been to bring a world-class motorsport event to Estonian fans and to give local drivers the chance to compete against the world’s best on home grounds.
Over the past 14 years, Rally Estonia has welcomed 402,131 unique spectators, averaging 28,723 per event. The most attended edition was the 2019 WRC Promotional Event, with 52,234 unique visitors.
Urmo Aava, Director of WRC Delfi Rally Estonia: “We’ve achieved so much together over the years. We’ve held both European and World Championship status, and I believe we’ve delivered memorable experiences to fans from Estonia and beyond—offering innovative ways to follow the rally onsite. It’s also rewarding to see how Estonian drivers have grown alongside us, competing more prominently in both the ERC and WRC. Additionally, more Estonians now hold significant roles within the FIA. Our work with the FIA and WRC Promoter has allowed us to bring innovations that started in Estonia to rallies around the world.”
Tarmo Hõbe, Commercial Director of WRC Delfi Rally Estonia: "A former dream of turning Rally Estonia into something more than just a world-class motorsport event has come true over the years—and even more than that. Today, it’s a large-scale family festival that attracts visitors from all over Estonia, the Baltics, and many other countries around the world.
For many, Rally Estonia has become a midsummer tradition—accommodation is booked months in advance, and families, relatives, and friends spend a long weekend in the beautiful nature of South Estonia, enjoying a world-class rally event and the diverse sports and entertainment program offered by Rally Estonia."
The total competitive distance of WRC Delfi Rally Estonia 2025 will be 308.35 kilometers, spread across 12 unique stages. A new addition this year is the Hellenurme stage, while two stages will run near Lake Peipus. On Thursday, July 17, the opening ceremony, autograph session, and start podium will take place in Tartu’s Town Hall Square. A new highlight for this year is that the final Power Stage will be held on the Kääriku stage, which includes both new and classic sections. Following the final stage, the official Rally Estonia finish podium will be held at Kääriku Sports Center, where the winners of WRC Delfi Rally Estonia will receive their traditional winner’s helmets and trophies.
The service park and EXPO area will again be located in Tartu, on the grounds of the Estonian National Museum in Raadi. You can explore the 2025 WRC Delfi Rally Estonia stage maps HERE.
