Baumholder, Germany
Germany, probably the most loved asphalt rally in the calendar. Taking place on and around the military training ground of Baumholder, this rally is known for it’s difficulties and it’s slippy paved sections. The main characteristic the drivers will have to face is represented by the Hinkelsteins. These huge kerbstones burried alongside the road are the biggest enemy, one small hit and you’re gonna get at least a puncture. This military training land used by the USA Army in the past is covered with small a layer of dust that makes the asphalt slippery in the dry and treacherous in the wet. We advise you to be very carefull on the notes, because a small miss of the braking point can make you go in the hinkelsteins and from there on your chances of victory are very slim.
