Full Entry List and Programme Revealed for Rallylegend 2026
Rallylegend 2026 has confirmed its complete entry list, featuring top rally stars, 40th-anniversary Group B celebrations, and the return of the Memorial Bettega from 8 to 11 October.
Organisers of Rallylegend 2026 have revealed the full entry list for the historic and showcase rally event in San Marino. Running from 8 to 11 October, the weekend brings together world-class competitors, historic machinery, and special exhibition runs across multiple disciplines.
Among the latest additions to the entry list are nine-time motocross world champion Antonio Cairoli, who enters the Rally2 class behind the wheel of a Skoda Fabia with co-driver Longo, and Norwegian rallycross driver Ole Christian Veiby, returning with Kristoffersson Motorsport in a Volkswagen Polo RX1 navigated by Jonas Andersson. Factory rally programmes are also well represented: Martins Sesks is scheduled in an M-Sport Ford Puma Rally1, Dani Sordo pilots an Hyundai i20 N Rally1 for Hyundai Shell Mobis World Rally Team, and Nicolay Gryazin joins Rachele Somaschini driving Lancia Ypsilon HF Rally2 machinery for Lancia Corse HF.
The 2026 edition marks the 40th anniversary of the end of the Group B era, celebrated with an extensive parade of original cars spanning Thursday's Legend Expo to Sunday's "The Legend" stage. Featured Group B entries include 1984 World Rally Champion Stig Blomqvist in an Audi Sport Quattro S1 E1, Marco Gramenzi in a Lancia Delta S4, Liam Doran in a Ford RS200, Sjoerd Van der Putten and Piet Hein Van der Heijden in Audi Sport Quattro cars, and Edoardo Valente in a Lancia Rally 037. Two-time WRC champion Miki Biasion will take the wheel of the very Lancia Delta S4 he drove to his first WRC win in Argentina in 1986, while Markku Alén will also make special appearances alongside fan favourites like Loris Rosati in his Ape Proto Evolution.
The action begins on Thursday, 8 October, with the opening press conference at 15:00 followed by the evening Sprint Legend Race. Friday and Saturday feature full rallying stages across San Marino, culminating on Sunday, 11 October, with the Group B anniversary runs and the knockout-format Memorial Bettega contest.
