It's quite often done on asphalt events but only from one day to another because of the new taping.

The length of rallies was longer in the past but at least for rally Finland and rally GB the average length of the stages were shorter. Shorter stages would give the organizer the possibility to choose the best parts of a road and leave out the boring parts just get enough stage length. But then again there would be more need for officials at the start and end of the stages.
Average stage length and number of stages on the right scale and total length of stages on the left scale.

Well it has happened in the past. I've been to Hafren (Dyfnant was also reversed ) when it has run in both directions on the same day; the run in the morning was 8-9:00 and the evening was 16-17:00; so there was enough time to turn the stage around. But I know that its become out of favour to do this anymore.
Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???

WRC Promoter will present its 2018 calendar to the WRC Commission meeting in Germany later this month.

Still no draft calendar? For Turkey, they have their candidate event from 20 to 22th of October, it's the Marmaris Rally. Quite strange to have a candidate event while everything should already be in place (in terms of calendar). Anyone who knows where and when the candidate event for Croatia is going to take place?
