Rallye de France has a formidable reputation and is arguably the most dangerous event in the championship with rally veterans Tommi Mdkinen and Colin McRae both suffering spectacular crashes in recent years.
The long and varied 40.7km Col de Carazzi to Bastelica stage is one of the longest in the championship and is likely to be an exceptional test of endurance.

The 2004 Tour de Corse was a special rally, with only 12 special stages, four per day, but stages which were on average the longest ever seen on a world championship rally outside Africa.
Although there were again huge delays during the rally because of lenient road section timing and the need for the midday flexi-service formalities, the format of the rally pushed the boundaries for the tyre companies and the drivers.
This format was as close as possible to the format of the asphalt endurance rally which made the event a classic a quarter of a century ago.

Ajaccio, Corsica — Ford BP Rallye Sport drivers Francois Duval and Stéphane Prévot and teammates Markko Märtin and Michael Park lie second and fifth respectively after their Ford Focus RS World Rally Cars dominated today's opening leg of the Rallye de France - Tour de Corse.
Märtin and Park won three special stages and, after leading this 12th round of the FIA World Rally Championship midway through today's quickfire 95.30 km leg, only a spin during the opening test of the afternoon deprived the duo of the overnight lead.
The second leg is the longest of the rally and one of the longest in the entire championship.

The Rallye de France will be the first asphalt event since August's Rallye Deutschland and the first of two consecutive Mediterranean sealed-surface events.
Contour hugging roads and twisty stages have earned it the nickname 'rally of the thousand corners', while the cars, fitted with lowered suspension and wide, sticky tyres, are set-up to make the most of the racetrack-like surface.
Competition on the rally is notoriously fierce, with regular WRC drivers battling alongside French tarmac specialists, many having honed their skills on the National Tarmac Championship.

Solberg needs to win the Rallye de France outright to stand any hope of catching title favourite Sébastien Loeb in the standings.
