Rally Route

The route is virtually identical to last year and is again based around the riverside service park in Perth's Langley Park.  The action opens at the city's Gloucester Park trotting track on Thursday evening with two passes over a spectacular super special stage, which is repeated at the end of Friday and Saturday's competition.  Friday's opening leg takes competitors south of Perth for a group of stages clustered around the town of Dwellingup.  Saturday's route heads south-east to the Bannister stages, formerly known as Bunnings, where the famous roller coaster jumps and watersplash provide some of the season's most dramatic images.  Both days end with a short loop of tests east of Perth before the Gloucester Park stages.  The final leg is the shortest and comprises two loops of stages near Mundaring, east of Perth.  Competitors face 26 stages in all covering 348.51km in a total route of 1334.41.
