Drive aggressively
and use the throttle to guide you through the corners.
Be carefull of changes to braking
grip on the different surfaces.
Avoid overshooting the corners,
many of them will put you over the edge and out
of contention.
Brake early and gas your way
around a turn rather than over-skidding it.
Listen carefully for special
instructions from your co-driver.
General Overview
A very dry, dusy rally with some very rough,
gravel roads and tortuous hairpins. Weakening the break power
will prevent wheel lockups and skidding on the gravely turns
while a shorter gearbox will get your car back up to speed
faster. Hairpins here are best handled by hard breaking to
set up the car before you enter the turn, then use your power
to quickly pull yourself aound the corner. A number of different
gravel types mean that the rally drivers must adapt their
style slightly throughout each stage. Watch for the changing
surfaces and adapt your braking to each. Go off one slick
corner and you could be over the edge ending your hopes of
placing in this rally.

Guide
Greece is the only Rally that is 100% gravel.
You will find many types of gravel roads in
Greece all of which do a lot of zig-zagging.
You won't find the jumps and bumps of Finland
here but you will find yourself going up and down a lot of hills.
Many roads are sprasely lined by small shrubs
and trees...all of which don't stop your car from going over
the edge.
Roads that are not lined by trees will often
be boardered by steep rocky cliffs...this one goes in the good
direction - up.
Don't get too caught up in these great mountain
top views or you might just find yourself getting a birds eye
view of them.
