Rallying

Rallying (international) or rally racing (US) is a form of automobile racing that takes place on public roads with modified production or specially built road cars. This unique motorsport is distinguished by running not in a Formula One-style circuit, but instead in a point-to-point format where participants and their co-drivers ?rally? to a set of points, leaving in regular intervals from start points. This distinctive approach to motorsport is not truly ?racing? in the strictest sense, instead best seen as a parallel approach to that of circuit racing. The entertaining and unpredictable nature of the stages, and the fact that the vehicles are in some cases closely related to road cars, draws massive spectator interest, especially in Europe, Asia and Oceania.
