WRGB

Only a few days to go before Wales Rally GB!

All the stars - including the newly-crowned 2015 World Rally Champion Sébastien Ogier and local hero Elfyn Evans - will first be in town on Thursday afternoon for the official pre-rally Autograph (and now, of course, selfie) Session in Venue Cymru.

The focus will then switch to Mostyn Street in the early evening for the rally's dazzling Ceremonial Start where a stunning show from Spark! LED drummers, big screen entertainment and driver interviews on the podium will give the brave-hearted competitors a fittingly dramatic send-off.

Friday and Saturday's edge-of-the-seat action is largely staged in the legendary forests of mid-Wales before Sunday's thrilling climax brings the crews back to Conwy County.As the battle for victory goes to down the wire, the Sunday begins with two timed sections around the spectacular Alwen and Llyn Brenig Reservoirs, before the cars head to Llandudno for a blast around the wonderful Great Orme.

The Orme wasn't included in last year's Wales Rally GB route and is one of rallying's most iconic stages - a real 'must see' for all sports fans.Immediately after completing the Orme, the cars and drivers will regroup in central Llandudno for 25 minutes to allow competitors to draw breath before returning to Brenig for the grand finale Power Stage back at Brenig.

As at the Ceremonial Start, spectators will be able to see the cars at Regroup without charge.Providing further entertainment, the big screen will return on Sunday morning which allows fans to watch some of the in-stage action live and there will be a special display of historic rally cars from the Slowly Sideways club. There will also be hundreds of cars parked up on the Promenade as members of the hugely popular pistonheads.com website come to town with its Sunday Service.
