I know. The same was in Ipirotiko and as far as I know the same will do tomorrow the rally Korinthos organizer. Some organizers choose to violate these rules and, in my opinion, they do well. But I doubt that Acropolis organizer will be among the ones that violate them.

Thanks to all for prividing info so far.
I am looking at doing this camping style as well. Curious as to if anyone had any recommendations for a place that rents lil 4x4 type rigs, or would a lil hatchback rental be able to conquer the roads after ruts have been thrown into them.
I read that backcountry camping / car camping is illegal, but rarely enforced. I take it that as long as you don't act like a doofus everyone is ok with it?

The leader of the Acropolis Rally, Anita Pasali, speaking to "Zougla.gr" puts an end to the scenarios that state that the special route of the Acropolis Rally "Tarzan" has been canceled.
Rumors that the FIA canceled the special route of "Tarzan" because they had no visibility were spread by irresponsible people. In fact, some reported that the FIA considered it a dangerous route, so it canceled it.
Because such a thing could not have happened because the special route set by the race leader ANITA PASALI had been approved by the FIA, which oversees the World Rally Championship, we considered that there was a misunderstanding and bad information.
We spoke with Anita Pasali, who has the main responsibility of the fight. She laughed when she heard it.
"Not only was it not cut but it will be done twice. "Just because it is also the Power Stage, which is shorter in length, they got confused there and said that it was cut ..."
The Commander of the Acropolis Rally made the following clarifications.
The special "Tarzan" of the Acropolis Rally in the morning will start from the road opposite the "House of the Nature Lover". It has a length of 23.37 kilometers.
At noon at 13.18 the Power Stage will start ten kilometers through the morning special route of "Tarzan" of 23.37 kilometers. That is, the second time the Power Stage that has a length of 12.68 km will start from 13.37 km of the morning route.
Anita Pasali also clarified that the reason why the special route of "Tarzan" as a Power Stage is shorter is because the TV time is specific and all the cars that will have reached the finish line should be covered.

Solberg is no surprise as he has to drive every single one of the remaining rallies to get full number of WRC2 starts.
Huttunen is a bit more since he can drop one, but given what rallies were left and the fact he has to drive Japan as overseas round after dropping Safari the choice was to drop one of Greece, Finland and Spain. Not surprisingly it looks like the dropped event will be Spain.
Anyway should be good WRC2 competition in Greece. Unlike Ypres and likely also unlike Spain.

Do I understand correctly? They asked COMPETITORS to avoid rally route? https://twitter.com/AcropolisRally/s...20634490900482
First stage of the rally will be live soon, looking forward to it
