Efrén Llarena won the ERC drivers' championship. The 2022 European Rally Championship is the 70th season of the FIA European Rally Championship , the European continental championship series in rallying. The season is also the ninth following the merge between the European Rally Championship and the Intercontinental Rally Challenge . Andreas Mikkelsen was the reigning champion. Javier Pardo Siota is the reigning champion of ERC 2, now renamed as ERC Open, while Jean-Baptiste Franceschi is the reigning champion of ERC 3 - now renamed as ERC 4.
Efrén Llarena won the championship before 2022 Barum Czech Rally Zlín , using a Ŝkoda Fabia Rally2 evo prepared by Team MRF Tyres .[ 1]
FIA ERC: Main open championship for all current FIA-homologated cars within sporting classes RC2 to RC5, with Rally2 cars the leading contenders.[ 2] FIA ERC3: Second tier, specifically for the Rally3 class. FIA ERC4: Third ERC tier, the first for front-wheel-drive cars. Allows Rally4, Rally5, R3 (Group R) and Group A cars.[ 2] FIA ERC4 Junior: For drivers aged 27 and under on 1 January 2022 in Rally4 and Rally5 cars on Pirelli control tyres. Also called 'ERC Junior' by the promotor, this championship will not be contested over the first two rounds.[ 3] FIA European Rally Championship for Teams: each team can nominate a maximum of three cars (from all categories), counting the two highest-placed cars from each team.[ 2] ERC Open: for the cars formerly used in ERC-2, including N4, Rally2-Kit and RGT classes.[ 4] This championship is organised by ERC Promotor Gmbh and is not an official FIA title, therefore entry into either ERC or ERC Open does not expressively qualify for entry into the other, unlike ERC3 or ERC4 for example. Clio Trophy by Toksport WRT: competition with six rounds of the ERC with Renault Clio Rally5 as the vehicle of choice.[ 5] The winner receives the ability to contest 3 events from ERC 2023 season behind the wheel of a Renault Clio Rally4 . The 2022 season is set to contested over eight rounds across Central, Northern and Southern Europe.
