Draw
Drivers
The Champion of Champions winner was decided by a knockout tournament, split into two halves - one (upper half) consisting of international racing drivers with the other being the rally experts and 'those with more experience of off-road driving'.[14] The preliminary rounds and 1/8 finals were decided by a single heat, with the Quarter-finals being decided by 2 heats, the best overall time as a tie-breaker. The Semi-finals were the best of 3 heats, and the Final was the best of 5.

The Nations' Cup was also decided in a knockout format, with each race being decided by 4 heats, with each driver racing against both drivers from the other team. If the match ended 2-2, the total race time was considered to decide a winner. The final round was a simple best-of-five match, with the winner crowned after reaching 3 heat wins.
