Rally of Poland

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Rally of Poland (Rajd Polski) is the second oldest rally in the world after the famous classic Monte Carlo. The first edition of The Rally of Poland was run in 1921. In 1973 The Rally of Poland was the one among 13 rounds of newly established FIA World Rally Championship. Since 2005 it takes place on gravel roads around Masurian Lake District.

Today Rally of Poland is a part of the FIA European Rally Championship and it's pretending to be a World Rally Championship round for two past years, with quite big chances for a succes next season.
