CE 2 - ETA I Car at End Control due 11.53 am
The beginning of this Stage is new to the classic and presents an
absolute challenge for the crews. Fast twisty road, with many
hidden holes and ruts over brows. Considered one of the most
challenging Stages of the entire rally. With challenging big
culverts, which can be taken a full speed…not for the faint
hearted though! Towards the end of the section the route runs
through a private farm.
