Shouldn't be as fast as Finland or Estonia but not Corsica either. Would be interesting to see was there ever a WRC stage that took place in country's capital? I can't recall one. Monte Carlo, ok, but that's different.

Day one should be in Zagrebacki velesajam, huge and mostly deserted fair area in the city itself where an opening special should take place. I read that they plan to have partly indoor stage for the first time in WRC history (?).

2008 Rally Japan had a super special stages in Sapporo Dome.

Thanks for the insights!

By mistake I delete my previous post,about a stage inside a capital
There was at 2005 inside Olympic stadium a super special stage
Full of crowd,about 70k? spectators
I was inside,nothing special of spectacular wise,but the sound inside the stadium was amazing.Also the atmoshpere from crowd,cheering etc was unique
