Amman — The sixth and final round of the Jordan Rally Championship will get underway on Friday from the Tal Al-Rumman area in Jerash, organized by the Jordan Motorsport Federation and sponsored by Zain Jordan.

The rally will cover a total distance of 114.38 kilometers, including 58.84 kilometers of special stages. The stages are divided into two main sections, each of which will be run twice to complete the route: the 14.91-kilometer Salhoub stage and the 14.51-kilometer Tal Al-Rumman stage. Both feature sharp turns and fast sections, as well as changing terrain, requiring teams to maintain a high level of focus and adaptability.

According to the supplementary regulations for the round, administrative checks and the distribution of the route book will take place Wednesday at the Jordan Motorsport Federation headquarters. Technical inspections of the participating cars will also be conducted at the training center of the Royal Automobile Club.
The competitors will conduct their route reconnaissance on Thursday.

The entry list features a mix of experienced drivers with extensive backgrounds in local and regional rallying, alongside younger competitors looking to establish themselves and achieve strong results.

The variety of car models taking part also adds a technical and competitive dimension to the rally, as each vehicle has different characteristics in terms of engine power, drivetrain and handling through corners and across varying terrain.

Given the diverse geography of the rally route, which ranges from narrow mountain roads to open, fast sections, victory will depend not only on outright speed but also on precise navigation, maintaining the car throughout the stages and making the right decisions under pressure.
