Rally Turkey: Rally Route

The rally is based in Pendik on the eastern fringe of Istanbul, one of the oldest residential districts in the city which overlooks the Marmara Sea. The single service park will be based there. The rally starts on Thursday evening next to Istanbul's famous Blue Mosque in the European side of the city, before crossing the Bosphorus River into Asia where the rest of the event is based. Friday's opening leg is the shortest and is clustered around the Black Sea holiday resort of Sile, north-east of Pendik. It is entirely gravel, apart from an end-of-day asphalt super special stage on the shores of the Bosphorus in Istanbul. The second leg again journeys north to the Black Sea and six of the eight stages contain asphalt. The final day's action is inland and close to Pendik. Drivers tackle 23 stages covering 358.84km in a route of 1108.57km. <pre> RALLY OF TURKEY ROUND 4 FIA WORLD RALLY CHAMPIONSHIP 15 - 18 April 2010
