Schedule - SS11 at 7am | SS15 at 2pm
Following its return in 2021, Vodafone Rally de Portugal once again heads to the roads of Monte de Santa Quitéria. The stage is a true forest rollercoaster, combining fast sections with highly technical driving zones, on a route originally designed specifically for the Rally when it was first used in 1993.

SS12/16 — Cabeceiras de Basto
Schedule - SS12 at 8:05am I SS16 at 3:05pm
Considered by many as one of the most scenic stages of the Vodafone Rally de Portugal, Cabeceiras de Basto retains the layout introduced in 2024. The progressive climb at the start sets the tone for the high speeds reached across the plateau section, where stunning natural scenery frames both competitors and spectators.

SS13/17 — Amarante
Schedule - SS13 at 9:35am I SS17 at 4:35pm
Since 2015, Amarante has remained the longest special stage of the rally. Iconic sections such as the Fridão hairpin, the Guinê bridge and the Sapinha hairpin are once again part of the route, just as they were when first used in 1969. Due to its length, crews adopt a different approach, where endurance and pace management are key factors for a strong result on this third day of competition.

SS14/18 — Paredes
Schedule - SS14 at 11:05am I SS18 at 6:05pm
One of the major additions in 2023 was the inclusion of the Paredes special stage. The route partially follows the Shakedown section and finishes at the same location, the Baltar Circuit. This stage has it all: very fast sections, slower technical areas, open countryside and stretches through eucalyptus forests, making it a demanding test for the drivers.
Best time: Ott Tänak / Martin Järveoja (Hyundai i20 N Rally1) – 11m15,7s

SS18 — Lousada
Schedule - Starts at 7:05pm
The Costilha circuit in Lousada, upgraded a year ago with the FIA World Rallycross Championship in mind, has long been a stage for top-level motorsport battles. It offers drivers a unique opportunity to go head-to-head on parallel tracks over 3.78 km. It is in this spectacular and memorable fashion that the third day of the Vodafone Rally de Portugal comes to a close.
