Next week's Rallye Monte-Carlo will host the first in a series of Innovation Forums that are intended to allow “expertise and knowledge” to be shared amongst stakeholders, according to World Rally Championship bosses.

The Innovation Forums has been created as a way of brin🤡ging decision-🅷makers, industry leaders, scientists and motorsport organisations together in the one place to deliberate on issues of importance.

Championship bosses also see it as a way of demonstrating how the World Rally Championship has taken steps to align itself more closely with the automotive world following thꦚe adoption of hybrid technologies for the 2022 season onwards as part of its Rally1 regulations.

Fossil-free fuel was introduc🐷ed 🦂at the same time as the energy recovery units came on line, with this designed to reduce their carbon emissions across the thirteen round calendar.

It is also hoped the new platform will give groups and bodies the opportunity to “debate challenges, lessons learned and opportunities for motorsport in contributing to the global sus🐼tainability, safety, and connectivity agendas”.

How working practices andꦏ technologies developed and implemented by♏ rallying’s top division can be carried over to other industries in future is also set to dominate future meetings.

Run in conjunction with Pirelli, FuelsEurope and OCI, the inaugural event has been pencilled in for January 20 in Monaco – the second day of the season-opening Rallye Monte-Carlo which, once again, is based out of the famous Princi🎃pality area.

“We are proud to welcome high-ranking speake꧙rs from the FIA, governments, our major industry partners and from the teams involved in the WRC,” said Jona Siebel – the Managing Director of the WRC Promoter.
