Sim racing fans agree that the last DiRT Rally 2.0 really pushed the limit for simulation rally racing. EA SPORTS WRC had recently been announced and will be following in the lineage of that series. A focus on the official World Rally Championship experience with providing a co-driver and mechanics to work on the car.

The winner of the event, rather it be on gravel, tarmac, dirt or snow, is determined by the lowest time of the competitors at the event.
