2022 FIA World Rallycross Championship
The 2022 FIA World Rallycross Championship was the ninth season of the FIA World Rallycross Championship, an auto racing championship recognized by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) as the highest class of international rallycross. Johan Kristoffersson won the drivers' championship for the fifth time. Kristoffersson Motorsport won the teams' championship for the first time under that name. Calendar 

On 15 December 2021, the provisional 2022 calendar was announced during the FIA World Motorsport Council decisions: The updated calendar was released on 21 March. It included one unconfirmed event. The calendar was updated again on 29 June on the FIA World Motorsport Council, in which World RX of Sweden was cancelled for RX1e, and World RX of Catalunya returned to the calendar provisionally. Another calendar update was announced on 7 July. The World RX of Germany was postponed to allow RX1e teams more time to prepare for the season. Calendar Changes
World RX of Sweden was listed as the opening round of World Rallycross Championship. A further update was issued in March, with Holjes becoming an official launch event headlined by the Euro RX1 series for combustion-powered supercars. The World RallyCross Championship's electric era started at Norway's Hell track on 13-14 August after delays to allow teams to ready their new cars. Series News 

 For the first time in world rallycross history all the categories were based on electric power. The RX1 class was discontinued. It was replaced by the electric RX1e class. While bodywork and liveries were different, all cars in this new class used the same powertrain developed by Kreisel Electric. A new race weekend format was adopted for the 2022 season. The grids for heat 1 were set using a single-lap shootout SuperPole session immediately following practice. Single header events featured three heat races (down from four), and double header events featured two heat races (down from three). The grids for the heats following heat 1 were set by finishing position in the previous heat, rather than overall time. The positions per heat were determined by time. Following the heat races a 'Progression' race determined which ten drivers moved on to the semi-finals. From the semi-finals, the top 2 drivers from each semi moved on to the final, along with the highest-placed driver finishing in third. The staggered grid for the semi-finals and finals was removed in favor of a side-by-side grid. There was a maximum of five cars competing in every race. Entries
