You will see the same everywhere in Belgium, I would say the average Belgian stage is probably only 8kms long. Take a look at Google maps in the regions where Belgian rallies are held. There are a lot of towns/villages, and a lot of big roads. To make a long stage you would need to either cross some villages, or close some big roads (which usually have a lot of traffic). It's probably difficult to get permission for all that. The last stage of today was actually shortened by a few kms (a month ago) so they wouldn't use an important road. Anyway, on these short stages you still have plenty of ways to access them. For example the first stage of the rally, Amay-Bodegnée (4,5kms long) had 17 access roads to the stage, including start and finish... So you need a lot of marshalls to handle all the spectators (something the organizers can't/won't do anyway). Having more shorter stages also makes the decision to cancel one (if needed) easier.
