    No Great Orme this year. Change of FIA rules about a completely tarmac stage in a gravel leg bot allowed anymore. As great orme was stage 1 of leg one with the rest of the stages in that leg on forest roads it is no longer allowed.

    Sometimes the rules are strange.

    Does this also affect super specials? What about Portugal?

    Not quite true.

    Anything can happen in terms of tarmac stage such as Great Orme, you just have to get a waiver from the FIA.

    Autosport has the basic route outline for Rally GB this year, which it claims the Manufacturers are happy with:

    Day 1
    Dyfnant
    Gartheiniog
    Hafren/Sweet Lamb (Combined Stage as run on the British Historic Champ)
    Myherin

    Day 2
    Crychan
    Halfway
    Epynt
    Celtic Manor SuperSpecial (Night)

    Day 3
    Port Talbot (Margam)
    Rheola
    Walter's Arena (Power Stage)

    Should be interesting...
