Today embodied the Carrera ethos perfectly,
with a stunning route, two fabulous Regularities
and four Tests around an amazing circuit in the
afternoon. With no luggage to weigh the cars down,
we saw every single unit of horsepower used to its
best advantage, hauling the rally through miles of
challenging countryside.
Despite what would prove to be a high-octane finish,
the rally enjoyed a leisurely departure from downtown
Granada, before the road turned towards the Sierra Nevada
National Park and a Time Control in the Meson Joaquín,
in Trevélez. Here, thin slices of the locally produced, drycured ham and glasses of café con leche fortified the crews
for two quick-fire Regularities from Las Fuentezuelas and
along the Arroyo del Palancón.
