The Itinerary – Dust, Heat, and Hellish Rhythm

It all kicks off Thursday with a 2.19 km shakedown at Olbia-Cabu Abbas—just enough to wake up the beasts before the real work begins.

Friday ignites the action with three double-run stages: Arzachena (13.97 km), the lengthy and technical Telti–Calangianus–Berchidda (18.43 km), and the punishing Sa Conchedda (27.95 km), totaling 120.70 km of intense gravel combat.

Saturday follows with Sardinia’s signature brutality. Drivers will dance with danger through Coiluna–Loelle (21.18 km), Lerno–Su Filigosu (24.34 km) featuring the iconic Micky’s Jump, and Tula–Erula (15.28 km). That’s 121.60 km of rough rhythm through narrow forest trails and wide-open hammer zones.

Sunday’s finale takes crews to San Giacomo–Plebi (25.19 km) and Porto San Paolo (13.78 km), with the latter doubling as the Power Stage—a final blast where points and pride hang in the balance.

 

The Lineup – Firepower Across the Field

Rally1 Machines:

  • Toyota unleashes a stacked deck with Evans, Rovanperä, Ogier, and Katsuta.

  • Hyundai counters with Neuville, Tänak, and Fourmaux.

  • M-Sport fields Munster, Sesks, McErlean, and Serderidis.

WRC2 Depth Charge: A 34-strong Rally2 battalion including the likes of Rossel, Lindholm, Loubet, and Kajetanowicz. All eyes on Jan Solans and Alejandro Cachón in the Toyota GR Yaris Rally2s – weaponized and tuned for Sardinia’s grip-starved gravel.

WRC3 Standouts: From Clio Rally3s to Fiesta Rally3s, WRC3 is the training ground where tomorrow’s champions are forged. Fontana, Chatillon, Kazaz and more are on the hunt.

 

How to Watch

 

Rally Islas Canarias has entered the WRC like a storm. A fresh tarmac challenge that mixes fast coastal sections with twisting hill climbs and a crowd energy that rivals the greats. This is a new kind of WRC rally—and it’s here to stay
