Round 9 of the FIA World Rally Championship heads to Estonia from July 16-19 for four days of flat-out gravel action.
The rally covers 18 special stages over 301.80 km across the high-speed roads of Tartu and Southern Estonia.
The Hub
Rally HQ returns to Tartu. The service park and EXPO are at the Estonian National Museum, with the ceremonial start in Tartu Town Hall Square.
Estonia is billed as the biggest motorsport event in the Baltics, and for good reason. It brings massive crowds, record average speeds, and iconic jumps across rolling farmland and forests.
The Challenge
The stages blend wide, high-speed forest roads with narrow, technical tests in the hills of Southern Estonia.
Precision and courage go hand in hand here. Flat crests, blind jumps, and high-speed compressions punish the slightest mistake.
The Entry
53 crews are registered so far, including 11 Rally1 cars and a stacked Rally2 field.
By mid-July the title fight is in full swing. This is Toyota vs Hyundai territory.
Drivers like Rovanperä, Evans, Tänak, and Neuville grew up on roads like these fast, flowing, and unforgiving.
