Other info

Wide and flowing forest roads characterise much of Dyfnant, with some great corners to entice drivers. It was last used in this format in 2014, but a new 2.3km section has been added at the start which is narrow and covered in slippery leaves. The surface is good throughout and drivers will love the final downhill part with some superb fast bends to attack.

Latvala Jari-Matti

"I don't have the best confidence with the car, it's really challenging now and not going in the direction I was hoping for. The turn-in doesn't give me the confidence at the moment."
