The rally, which was being run for the 40th time, was based in the Moravian town of Zlín. Friday saw the ceremonial start and opening super-special stage running through the streets of Zlín. On Saturday a further eight stages covering 138.88km (86.3miles) were run on asphalt with the final eight stages (126.38km (78.53miles)) being completed on the Sunday.
