Acropolis Rally Greece kicks off a run of seven consecutive gravel rallies as the World Rally Championship enters its second half of the season.
As one of the most attritional events of the season, Greece’s rough gravel stages look set to offer up another brutal edition. This year, the rally has moved south from Lamia to the town of Loutraki, which means almost 75% of the route is new for this season. The route may have been revised, but drivers are expecting the challenge of managing punishing rough gravel stages held in intense heat to be as tough, if not tougher, than ever.
