FIA reveals Hankook as new WRC tyre supplier from 2025
The FIA has chosen Hankook as the new official tyre partner and supplier for the FIA World Rally Championship (WRC) starting in 2025. Hankook won the tender process launched by the FIA in July based on various criteria. They will replace Pirelli, whose contract as the WRC’s tyre supplier will conclude at the end of the 2024 season. Hankook beat out competition from Michelin and DMACK for the lucrative WRC contract. This will be Hankook’s first venture into the WRC, although they have experience in rallying and are currently the official tyre supplier to the Junior European Rally Championship.
