All 15 crew spots for the 2026 edition are filled. You can join the free waiting list. We will contact waiting-list crews if a place becomes available, subject to eligibility. Joining does not reserve or confirm a place.

Yes. Driver and co-driver may approach companies, brands, local businesses and professional contacts. Confirmed crews receive guidance on available branding spaces, sector exclusivities, companies they may approach and how to structure sponsorship efforts. Rallye Sirocco plans a sponsorship seminar and open communication channels, but cannot guarantee that sponsors will be found or cover the fee.

Participants enter as a paid two-person crew: one driver and one co-driver. Volunteer applications for the 2026 edition are closed. Volunteer selection is separate from crew participation and does not provide a driver or co-driver place.

A crew consists of one driver and one co-driver. At least one crew member must hold a valid Category B driving licence; preferably both so they can alternate driving. No racing licence is required.

The package includes the MG ZS Hybrid+ provided for the event, fuel for the rally route, accommodation, meals, official clothing, rally kits, rally logistics, cultural activities and experiences, trophies and ceremony, event assistance, and humanitarian contributions and actions.

No. International travel to and from Marrakech is not included. Crews arrange their own flights or other international transport.

The main stages and general route are public. Exact hotels, restaurants, detailed schedules, activities and operational information are still being finalized and will only be shared with officially confirmed crews.

No. It is a regularity rally based on precise timing, navigation, consistency and teamwork rather than maximum speed.
