The 2026 edition of the Baja Hail Toyota International Rally has marked a historic milestone, achieving unprecedented levels of international participation and organizational excellence.
As a premier fixture on the regional and global motorsport calendars, the event has attracted a diverse field of 93 competitors.
Representing 27 different nations, these participants highlight the rally’s evolving global status and its ability to draw elite drivers and high-performance teams from across the world.
The race course was designed to offer a rigorous test of skill and endurance, extending over a total distance of 772 kilometers. The competition commenced with a high-energy demonstration stage in the Machar region at Qarin Anz, followed by two primary competitive stages centered in the Baqaa region.
This strategic route design provided a diverse landscape of challenges, further cementing Hail’s reputation as a world-class venue for off-road racing.
The success of the 21st edition is the result of a coordinated effort led by the Hail Region Development Authority and the Saudi Automobile and Motorcycle Federation.
This collaboration, supported by the Ministry of Sports, the Emirate of the Hail Region, and the Municipality of the Hail Region, ensures the event meets the highest international standards.
