The Rally Portugal program

Canceled last year due to the coronavirus pandemic, the Rally of Portugal makes its grand return to the World Rally Championship calendar in 2021.

This year, the Portuguese event launches the gravel rally hostilities. The program for the 4th round includes more than 330 timed kilometers spread over 20 special stages.

Once the Shakedown is completed on Thursday, the competitors will meet on Friday for the busiest day in terms of stages contested. In fact, no less than 8 are on the program for the first day of the Rally Portugal.

Saturday will be the longest day with 165 kilometers to cover in 7 special stages including the super-special in Porto in the evening.

The 4th meeting of the season will end on Sunday with 5 special stages and no longer 6 after the cancellation of Montim's 2nd pass by the organizers.
