Auckland Domain is set to be in the headlights when Auckland hosts Rally New Zealand, the local round of the FIA World Rally Championship May 6-9. For the first time since 1990, a super special stage will be run in the Auckland Domain. The 1.5km route will take competitors around a selection of the Domain's sealed roads in the dark of early evening. Rally New Zealand chairman Chris Carr says the inclusion of the Auckland Domain in the official route stems from a desire to ensure at least one competitive rally stage was run in close proximity to central Auckland and its legions of rally fans. "The Domain stage layout has been designed to provide excellent spectator viewing within the natural contours of the picturesque Domain. |
