The 2015 FIA World Rally Championship-3 is the third season of the World Rally Championship-3, an auto racing championship recognized by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile, running in support of the World Rally Championship. It was created when the Group R class of rally car was introduced in 2013. The Championship is composed by thirteen Rallies, and Drivers and Teams must nominate a maximum of six event. The best five results will be counted towards the championship.[1]
The 2015 calendar was announced at a meeting of the FIAWorld Motor Sport Council in Beijing in September 2014.[2] The season maintained the same rallies as the 2014 season and was contested over thirteen rounds in Europe, the Americas and Oceania.

Calendar changesedit
The Rallye Monte Carlo adopted Rally-2 regulations, allowing retired competitors to restart the event the next day with a time penalty.[4] Prior to 2015, the Rallye Monte Carlo was the only event being run without Rally-2 regulations.
The Rally of Portugal moved from its base in the town of Faro in the Algarve region—where it had been headquartered from 2007 until 2014—and relocated to the country's north, its original home prior until its removal from the calendar in 2002.[4]
In the WRC 2 and WRC 3 Championships for Teams, only the best placed car in a team will be taken into account for points.[6]
A car which has not started from the start line within 20 seconds will be considered as retired and will be able to restart under Rally 2 on the subsequent day.[6]
The transmission of performance data or information to or from a competing car, not in relation with safety, is forbidden during special stages to help promote greater competition.[6]
