Tour de Corse | 31 December - 31 December Briefing

France’s WRC round was held on the stunning island of Corsica from 1973 to 2008.  Never-ending sequences of turns earned the event the nickname ‘The Rally of 10,000 Corners’.  After a year’s absence due to rotation, the rally moved to the Alsace region of the French mainland in 2010, before returning to Corsica in 2015.

Some challenges await you:

• Tight and twisty mountain roads are often bordered on one side by a rock face and on the other by a steep drop into the sea. 
• Rough and abrasive asphalt places high demands on tyres. 
• Many crews have not previously tackled the rally so must write all-new pace notes. 
• Narrow roads mean errors can be punished heavily.
