Tour de Force en Corse

The Rallye de France, WRC Tour de Corse returns for a second consecutive year later this month after a seven year break. The drivers (and spectators!) will be hoping for better weather this year after unseasonal storms last October disrupted the event which was won by Finnish driver Jari-Matti Latvala - only the second ever Finn to won en Corse, the last being Markku Alén in 1983 & 84.
If that were not enough for rally fans there are three other rally events on the island all around the same time. I can't provide all the detail here so here's a list of what's on and where to see from with links for what will be a rally tour de force en Corse:

- Tour de Corse: 29 Sep to 2 October; the WRC 1-3 & JWRC, tenth round in the calendar
- Tour de Corse Ladies: 28 Sep to 2 October; a first with women only crews
- Tour de Corse 10000 Virages: 28 Sep to 2 October; Gt and supercars take on the 10,000 bends
- Tour de Corse Historique: 3 to 8 October; a rare opportunity to see and hear some absolute classic rally cars at maximum attack including Alén's Lancia 037 featured in the race publicity

Those 10,000 bends are going to see plenty of action, take a look at last years highlights here.
