Even the indispensable "Graffiti" , classic event for experts of regularity, has confirmed the continental title .
The route revised to some difficulties surfaced on the state of the roads , it is confirmed with 14 special stages and a higher percentage of distance competitive with transfers than in the past.


The roadmap´s organizational XXV Rallye Elba Storico, scheduled for September 19 to 21 in its classical position at the end of the summer, is progressing smoothly, the organizers of ACI Livorno Sport despite the holiday period is working at full capacity. The event, in fact, is in the midst of the period of registration. As the Regulations the entries have been opened on the 5th of August and will close on Friday September 6 and already these days are coming accessions important sign that even with the thoughts to leave, many drivers have in mind also the trip to the Island. An island which over time has become one of the icons of the world of street racing.
The race, given its timing at the end of the summer is likely to encourage the extension of the tourist season on the largest island of the Tuscan archipelago, a valuable opportunity to promote the island´s reality, its historical, cultural, artistic, nature, food and wine. This year the event Elba is one of those "right": the race to reach the finish line of exciting twenty-five editions, as the "Graffiti" already did last year: to taste the sensations it will be a unique experience.
A quarter of a century that will be celebrated as the tenth round of the FIA ​​European Historic Sporting Rally Championship and penultimate Italian, while the part of "Graffiti" will be eligible again for the FIA Trophy for Regularity Rallies (the fifth of the seven races on the calendar), in practice the continental championship.

CAPOLIVERI STILL THE HEART OF THE RACE
Strong broad consensus obtained from competitors, enthusiasts and insiders (seven nations represented among the competitors , around 7000 units recorded movement of these various roles with the event last year), ACI Livorno Sport drew edition 2013 ready to consolidate the high quality offered in the past editions. Since 2011 the headquarters moved in Capoliveri, reconfirmed location that was also theater of a Special Stage that passes through the village, which will be repeated this year. The Rallye Elba will also touch Porto Azzurro, little town that was, until recently, stage of the modern rally that takes place in the spring. Moving the regroupment between the first special stage, the "Volterraio-Falconaia" and the second (the one just inside Capoliveri) will close the appetizing aperitif in the evening on Thursday, as well as to take a good part of the island, they sound like confirmation the active involvement of all the administrations of the territory. Why the Rallye is understood as its own of the territory but also "for the territory", which promotes the image, communication and also the economic fallout with the emotional tourism, the island that resulted from the event itself.
Nothing changed, compared to the two previous editions, with regard to the logistics of the rally: the headquarters of the event is confirmed in Capoliveri, functional facilities at the Hotel Elba International, exclusive location that admires the Gulf of Porto Azzurro, where they will be organized the Race Direction, the Secretariat and the Press.

THE PATH THAT COMES FROM TRADITION WITH TWO STAGES MORE
Competition, exciting duels with the cars that have made the history of street racing and even culture. These have always been the inspiration of the race for which , this year , we have worked with passion to make it even more exciting and fascinating. In fact, for this rally where the name alone is a guarantee of success (the Rallye Elba is one of the most famous Italian races in the world), ACI Livorno Sport, once more provided three days of challenges , with a total of 14 special stages and two more than in 2012. Paths are "historic", which have seen more than one occasion sporting feats a strong impact.
Following the philosophy of constant innovation to not disappoint the expectations of him that runneth, but also as an argument to achieve increasingly ambitious goals, the Organizing Committee this year we have seen must be ´forced´ to deal with the practical need of having to redraw the historical path race. A good part of the way it has been revolutionized by landslides that continue to affect the island´s roads, with particular reference to the traditional Stage "Parata-Falconaia". Unfortunately, when designing the path the Provincial Road "Parata" was partially unusable for which you are due to find alternatives. Alternatives that are not lacking: the recent past, in fact, the Rallye Elba will include a higher percentage of kilometers of special stages compared to traits transfer.
A new look certainly appreciated by those who run, which will have before it a Rallye ready to send thrills, exciting, entertaining and above all technical.

THE RACE SCHEDULE
The race will start on the evening of Thursday, 19 September: from 20.00 competitors will drop from the start ramp in Piazza Matteotti in Capoliveri and will go immediately to contend with two special stages, as mentioned on the "Volterraio" and "Capoliveri." Then, the competitors will enter the regrouping night at 22,31.
The second day of competition, Friday, 20 September, which will start at 08,01, provides for another six special stages, with the final of the first leg foreseen at 16.14, again Capoliveri. The next day, Saturday 21 September, the grand finale, with a further six timed sections: the challenges will start at 08.30 and the checkered flag, yet in Capoliveri, flown in from 16.00.
In total, the rally measurement 484.860 km, of which 138.210 are timed, ie 28.51% of the distance.

THE ADDED VALUE OF TROPHIES
The Rallye Elba is a frame. Fine. They know those who organize the side trophies and for this they come on the Island with the desire to give value to their initiatives. It is the most brilliant example the lucky A112 Abarth Trophy, which on this occasion will propose the distinction of being the only rally that will take each stage as a race apart, with clear benefit of competition and entertainment. There will also be the 2013Historic Car Rally Challenge, the "Memory Nino Fornaca" (Elba Rally will be the last event of the mini racing circuit dedicated to the memory of the unforgettable PR disappeared 16 years ago now) and the Porsche-Michelin Historic Rally Cup (also for this trophy Rally Elba will be the last act).
