Motorsport enthusiasts focus on Greece this weekend, October 10-11, as the SEAJETS Acropolis Rally 2015 is once again bringing together the best crews from the European Rally Championship and the Greek Rally Championship. Demanding and spectacular, the two-day event draws the top contenders for the European and national titles, who will race on the intricate and difficult surfaces of the Greek mountains.
The well known "Acropolis Rally" this year will run under the official name SEAJETS 2015 Acropolis Rally, since the event is organized for the first time by the Hellenic Motorsport Federation (OMAE) and the Seajets shipping company. A preview of the top spec cars will be part of the spectacle, and spectators will have the chance to see top drivers performing behind the wheels of famous racing cars.
The rally is concentrated around Loutraki, a seaside resort on the Corinthian Bay, 65 km west of Athens, well-known for its natural mineral water springs, its therapeutic spas and the stunning surrounding landscape. The route consists of 9 special stages, including the 43 km length “SEAJETS Kineta-Loutraki” (Saturday Oct 10), followed by the “EKO Racing Kineta” that will run in darkness.
