Description
The itinerary of the fifth edition of the Rally dÕItalia Sardegna is on line. The race is the sixth round of the 2008 WRC and the third event of the Super 1600 World Championship. HQ will be in Olbia, while the Starting and the Arrival Ceremony will be organised in the charming location of Porto Cervo. The Italian round of the World Rally Championship, organised by the Automobile Club dÕItalia, will be developed through three Legs and 17 Special Stages. The new Itinerary will be similar to the last editions, but many technical difficulties have been introduced. All the Special Stages will be raced through the Monte Acuto area, inside the forestall site. The race will continue to be very technically selective.
All three legs will be raced on similar roads, but many changes have been introduced: the first day, for example, will start by a new edition of the Monte Corvos stage, in nearby Budduso; going on with the second Special Stage that will be developed inside the forest of Crastazza, in the nearby of Bitti (Nuoro). This Stage will be longer, in its final part, than the last edition. The third chrono, Terranova, has been planned on the old Terranova and Monte Olia road crossing the SS 389 as always. The second racing day will start with the Punta Pianedda Stage, that will start and arrive in Loelle. It will be a very fast stage raced inside the Loelle site, but driven through some new roads without forgetting the classical passage close the plantation of cork-trees in the Budduso area. No changes have been introduced in the second chrono, that will be characterised, as last edition, by the spectacular Monte Lerno jump, while the third chrono will be raced in the Su Filigosu area. The final Leg has been modified: the two Special Stages of Monte Olia and Sorilis will be characterised by a medium average speed. The last chrono will be completely new and will take place in the Liscia Ruja area, the fascinating and enchanting scenario of the Cala di Volpe Gulf.
354 km, on a total amount of 1.045 km of racing roads, will be timed and hosted by the territory of the Sardinian Forestall Board, fundamental partner of the Organisation, while the provinces involved in the event will be three: Olbia-Tempio, Nuoro e Sassari. The Service Park, located in Olbia / Cala Saccaia, will be operative at the beginning, at halfway and at the end of each Leg. The HQ and Press Room will be hosted at the Hotel Melia, as it was last year.
