The start will be in Athens 99%. Possibly combined with a SSS at the Hippodrome in Markopoulo. Higher ups are trying for OAKA like in 2005, but it may prove too costly.

You mean 380 km of special stages?
This would be fantastic... We have not seen that much competitive km for a long time.

The FIA has always made it clear an event coming to the championship to replace another rally can run below the stipulated 300-kilometer (180-mile) agreed limit.
A source in the event told DirtFish: “We won’t do that. We want to run the full Monte. We have a reputation to maintain and when we deliver the route in 15 days, you will see that this is what we’re going to do.”
While the Acropolis comes in as a replacement for Rally Chile, which was lost to ongoing coronavirus concerns in South America, the Athens-based organizer has agreed a multi-year deal to ensure one of the series’ founding rounds can again look forward to a WRC future.
The favored option within the organizing group is understood to be a Loutraki base with a day one remote tire zone taking the crews north towards Lamia for classic stages such as Thiva, Bauxites and Drossohori.
“The target is to have 80% of the population vaccinated against coronavirus by September so that combined with some sensible precautions, like masks, should hopefully enough for us to bring spectators back to what is an outdoor event – that’s so important for us.”

Sorry for the fine Rally of Chile, but very glad to see Acropolis back... we needed one rough, slower gravel rally in the calendar and we got the best one in the world. Finally!
