343kms of Special Stages, I think it’s the longest we’ve had since they applied the stupid rule of up-to 350kms of SS back in 2019; 3(!) nights stages, fingers crossed they’ll all run. Col de Turini will again serving as the power stage, hopefully they won’t finish like this year

[Dimitris]

Col De Turini will turn right at the Col, and will finish at Peira Cava, like 2017 for example.

I made a map predicting how the stages will look, obviously some inaccuracies to be expected.

Finally km`s of SS rising up...I hope it is not an isolated case :)

I hope it’s not to have a sprint rally in Sweden after.

Still no full Turini stage.......though we saw it on Saturday on Stage 20 of the Tour de France.....

To be honest I would change the classic Turini route (La Bolléne-Vésubie to Sospel) for the IRC (2009 I think) variant any day. That one was same like 2025 but much longer, passing Peira Cava, than turning left through the epic descent to Pas de'l Escous and after that over the Col de'l Orme and Col d'Ablé.

[Dimitris]

Yeah that was essentially a combination of Col De Turini and Col de Braus
