Description

Here we are in the French Alps, in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region, which will host the 2026 WRC Rallye Monte-Carlo at the end of January. We're here to film the tests, which usually take place two weeks before the opening race of the World Rally Championship. In this video, we see the Toyota GR Yaris Rally1 driven by Sami Pajari/Marko Salminen, which, as in the 2025 season, lacks the hybrid system per the regulations. This is evident from the absence of the active safety lights on the windshield and sides of the car, which were present in 2024 and were intended to indicate its operation. Furthermore, the rear bumper's large horizontal air intake, which is needed to cool the hybrid system and battery pack, has been closed. Therefore, even in the 2026 season, the cars will continue to be powered solely by the 1.6-liter turbocharged internal combustion engine, running on eco-friendly fuels and capable of developing approximately 380 hp. The absence of a hybrid system makes Rally1 cars lighter; the minimum weight has decreased from 1260 kg (2024) to approximately 1180 kg today. The flange on the engine intake, per regulations, is reduced from 36 to 35 millimetres to keep the weight-to-power ratio unchanged between the 2024 and 2025/2026 seasons. I have to thank my friend and YouTuber @19Bozzy92 with whom I collaborated to realise this video. Enjoy! 😉 Eccoci sulle Alpi Francesi nella regione della Provenza-Alpi-Costa Azzurra che a fine Gennaio ospiterà l'edizione 2026 WRC Rallye Monte-Carlo. Ci troviamo qui per filmare i test che solitamente si svolgono con due settimane di anticipo rispetto alla gara che aprirà il campionato mondiale rally. In questo video vediamo la Toyota GR Yaris Rally1 guidata da Sami Pajari/Marko Salminen che, come già avvenuto nella stagione 2025, è priva del sistema ibrido, come da regolamento. Visivamente lo si nota dall'assenza delle luci di sicurezza attive presenti sul parabrezza ed ai lati della vettura, presenti del 2024, con lo scopo di identificarne il funzionamento. Oltre a questo, nel paraurti posteriore, la grande presa d'aria orizzontale necessaria per consentire il raffreddamento del sistema hybrido e del pacco batteria è stata chiusa. Dunque anche nella stagione 2026 le auto continuano ad essere alimentate dal solo motore termico da 1.6-Litri turbo con l'impiego di carburanti ecologici e capace di sviluppare circa 380 Hp. La mancanza del sistema ibrido rende le Rally1 più leggere; il peso minimo diminuisce dai 1260 Kg (2024) ai circa 1180 Kg attuali. La flangia sull'aspirazione del motore, come da regolamento, viene ridotta da 36 a 35 millimetri in modo da mantenere invariato il rapporto peso-potenza tra la stagione 2024 e 2025/2026. Un grande grazie all'amico e YouTuber @19Bozzy92 con cui ho collaborato alla realizzazione del video.
