Mallorca in March: the most popular classic rally in the island heats engines
The XVI edition of the Mallorca Classic Rally will be held in the island from 12th to 14th March; an event considered to be one of the world's highest level of historic automobile races because it has the best sections in the world, such as the 12-kilometre descent of the Sa Calobra road, which has a 360-degree curve.
The section consists of curves linked to right and left, a dozen of them 180 degrees in horseshoe and one that has its own name, Tie Knot, with a 360-degree turn in which the road passes below itself forming a tie.
This stage limits all riders to the controls of their classic jewels for the enjoyment of fans and motor lovers.
The Mallroca Classic Rally is an event that for the last 15 years has been taking place the 2nd weekend of March on this privileged island in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea. Rally drivers from all over Europe take part every year in this rally, with more than 90% repeating pilots year after year.
Nowadays it has managed to position itself among the best sporting events of the year that are held in Mallorca. This shows that not only is it an engine competition but also a great social event, where local and resident participants from different nationalities of the world mix.
