Yalta Rally
Time of the event: September 12-14, 2008.
Place of the event: city of Yalta, highways near Ay-Petri Mountain and Alushta town.
Conception: Yalta PRIME rally is a European Rally Cup Event. Ukraine’s best rally and foreign teams are to challenge themselves on mountain serpentine narrow meandering roads.
One of the most spectacular and demanding events, Yalta Rally made an eagerly-awaited debut on the European Rally Cups and has quickly proved to be popular, with a compact series of well-organized, high-speed asphalt stages through the Crimea mountains and plains around the cities of Yalta and Alushta.
The opening and closing ceremonies, as well as the Parc Ferme take place in the quay of the luxury resort city of Yalta. The event's stages are mostly located in the hilly countryside.
The rally is famous for its narrow asphalt mountain roads.
The high-altitude stages make for spectacular viewing with a mixture of mountain peaks and flat valleys. As the engines struggle to breathe in the thin air and suffer a drop in power of about 20 per cent.
Rally drivers must thread the thin line between the towering cliffs on one side and the gut-wrenching drops on the other. This event is run on roads which never seem to stop surprising. It's definitely a rally for the asphalt specialists!
This can provide a real challenge for the drivers as they need to balance the desire to push with the need to avoid the numerous small stones and rocks that litter the roadside. Cornering technique comes into its own on the dramatic, mountainous places of the Crimea.
