The gravel and sand surfaces are thin and slippery and can quickly wear away to leave rough and unforgiving surfaces which can catch drivers and cars out, especially on the second running of stages. Add in temperatures of up to 30°C and the Rally Italia Sardegna is an event which tests both cars and drivers to the max.
The Rally Italia Sardegna is an event which demands both speed and precision throughout. The gravel roads of Sardinia are fast, but many of them are lined with trees, shrubbery and even rocks which take no prisoners if an error is made.
