is provided, along with a group
dinner every evening, other
than on non-driving days.
Single rooms are available for a
supplementary fee but may be
limited at some hotels. Many
lunches and coffee halts will
also be provided in a variety
of venues. We will operate a
van to transport your luggage
between hotels (sensible weight
restrictions will apply).
What to take
A fire extinguisher, full first aid
kit, warning triangle, high visibility
jackets and a towrope are all
mandatory. On occasion we will
park in historic areas where we
insist an oil-resistant groundsheet
is placed under each car.
Your car will need to be
fitted with a tripmeter that
can be calibrated to that of the
organisers (e.g. Monit G100), and
you will need a simple stopwatch
for the regularity sections.
Helmets and overalls are not
required, and do not reflect the
spirit of the event.
On event support
Our expert team of sweep
mechanics follow the last car on
the rally route and are prepared
to help anyone they come across.
Should your car be off-route, you
must telephone the sweeps as
soon as possible. Should you need
to be transported by truck we will
help as much as we can, but all
responsibility, including payment,
rests with the competitor.
We always have at least one
doctor or paramedic on our
events.
Insurance and other documents
Vehicle insurance is not included
and whilst many insurers include
this kind of event in their classic
car policies, some do not. Note
that UK and other non-EU crews
are now required to carry a Green
Card as proof of their insurance.
We strongly recommend you also
have adequate travel, medical
and cancellation insurance.
You do not need any kind of
competition licence, a full driving
licence that is valid in Spain is
enough.
British and European
competitors do not currently
need visas for this event, but UK
passports should be valid for at
least 6 months beyond the date
of entering Spain. Those from
further afield should contact
the Embassy within their home
country if they are unsure.
At the time of writing a Carnet
or other customs documentation
is not required to drive a roadregistered car from the UK (or
the EU) to Spain, although this
may be required if you intend to
have your car delivered to the
start by a transport company.
Rally the Globe work closely with
CARS Europe who can deliver a
range of transportation services.
