After finishing as runner-up five times, Thierry Neuville finally achieved his maiden drivers' world title last year and will be determined to start the new season with a victory in Monte Carlo. The Belgian triumphed in Monaco last season and will be seeking to win the curtain-raiser for a third time in his career.

However, Hyundai’s Neuville will face plenty of competition, especially from the Toyota trio of Elfyn Evans, Sébastien Ogier and Kalle Rovanperä. Evans has finished as runner-up in the WRC standings the last two years, while Ogier is the second most successful driver in history with eight world titles.

Rovanperä will also be looking to get back to winning ways as he makes his first Monte Carlo appearance in two years. The 24-year-old is a two-time world champion and is returning to full-time racing this year after contesting a partial season in 2024.

Ott Tänak and Hyundai’s latest signing Adrien Fourmaux will also be in the mix, while one racer to watch out for is last year’s WRC2 champion Sami Pajari who will race in Toyota’s factory-spec Yaris.

It should be a thrilling race so read on for how to watch a 2025 Monte Carlo Rally live stream online from anywhere in the world.
