Much has changed since the WRC's last visit to Cyprus in 2006. Most of the competitive distance is new and while the holiday resort of Limassol remains the base, there is a new service park alongside the seafront in the town's Germasogeia area. After Thursday evening's start ceremony at Limassol's Palais des Sports, Friday's asphalt leg is based on the western edge of the Troodos mountains, north of Paphos, and is the longest of the rally. The bulk of Saturday's action is located in the centre of the Troodos before Sunday's final leg returns to the west. Although it contains only three stages, Sunday will be a true sting in the tail with one test of more than 40km and another of more than 30km -- the only stage remaining from the 2006 itinerary. Only one gravel stage will be used more than once and drivers tackle 14 stages covering 332.07km in a route of 1198.00km. <pre> CYPRUS RALLY ROUND 3 FIA WORLD RALLY CHAMPIONSHIP 12 - 15 March 2009
