Calendar expansion
Following the return of
The planned expansion put pressure on European rounds to maintain their position on the calendar as teams were unwilling to contest sixteen events immediately. The
The proposed events in Japan and Kenya ran candidate events in 2019 in a bid to join the championship in 2020.[14][15] Both were successful in secure a place on the 2020 calendar. The calendar published in October 2018 included Rally Chile as part of the expansion to fourteen rounds.[1] The event was based in Concepción and ran on gravel roads.[16]
Route changes
The route of Rallye Monte Carlo was shortened by 70.91 km (44.1 mi) compared to the 2018 route.[17] The route was revised after rule changes that were introduced for the 2019 championship limited the maximum distance of a route to 350 km (217.5 mi).[1] Organisers of the Tour de Corse announced plans for a new route, with up to three-quarters of the 2019 route being revised from the 2018 rally.[14] Rally de Portugal was also shortened by 46.72 km (29.0 mi) compared to the 2018 route.[18]

Team changes
Citroën will only enter two cars for the entire season. The team had two full-time entries in 2018, with a third car run on a part-time basis. Citroën cited a change in sponsorship arrangements as being the reason behind the decision to forgo a third car.[34] M-Sport Ford will also scale back to two full-time entries, with a third car entered on a round-by-round basis.[35] Malcolm Wilson stepped down from his role as M-Sport Ford's team principal to oversee the company's wider commercial operations. Richard Millener was appointed as his replacement.[36] Hyundai also replaced their team principal Michel Nandan with their customer racing manager Andrea Adamo.[37] Toyota expanded to four cars, adding an additional car on a part-time basis.[38] The fourth car will be run by Toyota's factory team, but entered under Marcus Grönholm's GRX Team banner.[38]
Crew changes
Two-time World Drivers' and Co-drivers' Champions Marcus Grönholm and Timo Rautiainen returned to the championship for the first time since 2010, making one-off appearance with Toyota.[38] Sébastien Loeb and Daniel Elena signed a contract to contest six rounds with Hyundai, sharing an i20 with the crew of Dani Sordo and Carlos del Barrio.[49] Hayden Paddon was set to enter the Rally Finland with M-Sport Ford after he left without a drive for the season,[50][51] but a heavy crash during testing forced M-Sport to delay his planned return to Australia.[52][53] Unfortunately, things did not work as planned as the rally was cancelled due to bushfires.[2] Paddon's co-driver Sebastian Marshall moved to Toyota.[54] He partnered Kris Meeke,[55] who returned to full-time competition after being fired by Citroën halfway through the 2018 championship.[56] Meeke's former co-driver Paul Nagle is due to cooperate with Crag Breen in Finland.[42] Teemu Suninen also changed co-drivers, with Marko Salminen replacing Mikko Markkula.[57] However, they ended their partnership before Sardegna as Jarmo Lehtinen took over Salminen's position.[58] Daniel Barritt split with Elfyn Evans to partner Takamoto Katsuta in the World Rally Championship-2;[59] Evans instead was joined by Scott Martin.[60] Katsuta and Barritt were later entered into Rallye Deutschland in a fourth Toyota.[61]
Rule changes
The maximum total distance of special stages per event was reduced from 500 km (310.7 mi) to 350 km (217.5 mi).[1]
Drivers were permitted to choose a permanent number, similar to the numbering systems used in
The number of test days were reduced from 55, with teams permitted to test for 42 days per year.[1][62]

The rally was cancelled due to bushfires in the Mid North Coast region.[116] The organisers initially proposed a shortened route in lieu of the planned rally,[117][118] which was developed with input from the New South Wales Rural Fire Service, but they were forced to cancel the event altogether as the bushfires intensified, rendering the area unsafe for the rally to proceed as planned.[119] As a result, Hyundai Shell Mobis WRT won their first manufacturers' title.[120]
