Csesznek
Length: 10,05 km
Expected road closure: 5:45
SS1 – 1st car start: 8:43
SS4 – 1st car start: 13:27
Stage description
After 30 years, the stage located near Csesznek Castle returns to the rally. The high-quality, wide two-lane road begins with a serpentine section, transitioning to more technical stretches with faster turns towards the end. Spectators in Csesznek can access the stage by approaching from the village and reaching the section through a staircase near the underpass. Another option is the asphalt road starting from Csesznek, which reaches the stage before the Gézaház junction. The section before the junction is more technical, followed by faster turns.

Olaszfalu-Tés
Length: 11,70 km
Expected road closure: 6:15
SS2 – 1st car start: 9:16
SS5 – 1st car start: 14:00
Stage description
In the early 2000s, this section was known as a challenging stage for those who competed on it over twenty years ago. Two years ago, the road was re-asphalted, making this section now of high quality throughout its length. After the fast first part, the road goes through the forest from Alsóperét onwards, where teams should expect bumps and tougher sections. After the Bakonynána right turn, sharper turns follow, and then the road smoothens out and the pace increases. This is followed by another technical section before the end of the track, which is closed off with additional chicanes. Most spectator points are located near Nagyveleg, and the other parts are off-limits to viewers. Please do not attempt to enter these restricted areas.

Nagyveleg
Length: 9,40 km
Expected road closure: 7:00
SS3 – 1st car start: 9:59
SS6 – 1st car start: 14:43
Stage description
A classic rally section known from the Székesfehérvár Rally and the Vértes Rally. The narrow single-lane road starts fast, but as you approach the village of Nagyveleg, you encounter more technical corners. The grip on the white asphalt dramatically decreases in the rain, so teams need to be cautious. After Nagyveleg, the road widens, and the asphalt is relatively new, with smoother turns, allowing for a faster pace. Most spectator points are in Nagyveleg, and these cannot be accessed during the race. Therefore, this section is suitable for those fans who want to watch the entire field.
Spectator areas
Tickets | HUF 3.000 |
Tickets (Start): | 47.322251, 18.122441 |

Length: 14,50 km

SS7 – 1st car start: 9:33
SS10 – 1st car start: 13:47
Stage description
This route on a narrow forest road has not hosted any significant rally events in the past twenty years. It features challenging sections with sharp corners and risky turns, especially in the first part where you can expect bumps. Most spectator points are accessible on foot, with the exception of the Sokoró junction, which can be reached by car during the race. The rest of the stage is closed off to spectators.

Length: 20,40 km
Expected road closure: 7:15
SS8 – 1st car start: 10:16
SS11 Power Stage – 1st car start: 14:30
Stage description
This is the most convenient stage for spectators, with several parking lots and cafes. The inner areas are accessible only before the race, while the outer areas are free to roam. Spectators can see the racers multiple times during the circuit, and jumps, the iconic tilted turn, and varied road surfaces guarantee an exciting experience. From a competitor’s perspective, it’s good news that the rough sections that put extreme strain on tires are not part of the race or test route, so there’s no need to worry about tire wear.

Stage description
Compared to previous downtown stages, this one is not just for spectators; the fast sections, exciting corners, and roundabouts make it enjoyable for racers as well. The view from the race cars is unique, and the city center of Győr, the promenade, and the bridge, along with the numerous spectators, make this section one of the highlights of the WHB Győr Rally. Safe spectator areas, areas equipped with playgrounds for families, and numerous additional activities make the rally appealing to those new to the sport as well. The section is easily accessible, and the service park is nearby.
