The return of the Acropolis Rally Grecce in the 2021 World Rally Championship gave the current drivers the challenge they've truly deserved as they are going to tackle the most challenging road conditions by all means necessary.
As Kalle Rovanpera topped the Shakedown, the opening stages showed signs of dominance for Sebastien Ogier until Rovanpera stole his spotlight in the Friday stages, where numerous incidents occurred on rugged gravel roads near Athens, mostly Ogier's title rivals.
