Rally Ireland

Taking Rally Monte Carlo's traditional place as the first rally of the year, the wintry January weather is likely to present a big challenge in Ireland. Ice and snow are a distinct possibility. Even on Pirelli's winter tyres this one is going to be tough.

The rally proper will start on Friday morning from Sligo with three stages run twice in the Leitrim/Cavan area before moving after a second service to take in two stages in Co Tyrone after nightfall. Parc Fermé is adjacent to the Service Park, with the day’s stages totalling nearly 165km.

On Saturday the action moves to Northern Ireland with three stages in Counties Tyrone and Fermanagh being run twice, interspersed with Service in Sligo, and totalling 132km before returning to Sligo for the overnight halt.

Sunday’s action takes in five stages totalling almost 70km in counties Sligo, Leitrim, Roscommon and Donegal culminating with a thrilling stage around the streets of Donegal Town, which will be televised live as a fitting finish to what will be an excellent opening event of the season.

The cars will have a final Service before the Final Control and Podium Ceremony in Sligo.
