It is understood the crash happened when a competing car left the road at a left-hand bend.
Motorsport Ireland and Donegal Motorclub said they had cancelled the rest of the event "as a mark of respect".
They said they were "deeply saddened" by the death and expressed "deepest sympathies to the family of the deceased and ask that everyone respect their privacy at this time".
Motorsport Ireland and Gardai said they had begun a "full investigation into the circumstances of the accident".
They also added they are aware of video footage of the accident circulating on social media, asking the public not to share it.
Organisers bill the three-day event as "one of the toughest rally challenges there is for drivers and teams" and claim it welcomes more than 70,000 spectators with 400,000 viewing it on TV and online.
Those taking part compete in 20 stages around the north-west coast of the county.
