ROUND 13 FIA WORLD RALLY CHAMPIONSHIP

Rally Route Although the competition is again split between the forests of mid- and south Wales, there are significant changes to this year's route. 

 A new asphalt special stage near the service park in Cardiff Bay launches the rally on Thursday evening and is repeated on Saturday night. 

Friday's leg again visits the classic Hafren and Myherin tests in mid-Wales, with a brief 15-minute service in Builth Wells splitting two loops of the same roads. 

Saturday is the longest leg with two new stages and an 11km asphalt section on the Epynt military ranges in mid-Wales as part of a 25.14km mixed surface stage, near Brecon. 

The final day in the south and includes a revised version of the famous Resolfen test in the Vale of Neath.
