2024 – 29th Rally Maroc Classic

STAGE 1 : TANGER – IFRANE / sunday 3rd march 2024

For this first stage of the 29th Morocco Classic Rally, departing from Tangier, the participants headed south-east for a rather smooth 399 KM stage, to reach Ifrane. The morning offered a route in the foothills of the Rif and its green agricultural regions where an uncertain sky offered some showers somewhat complicating the progress of the cars towards Ouezzane where the lunch break was established. During this first part of the stage a first test of regularity was proposed by battling with the stopwatch, with a winding route enhanced by several changes in average. After the lunch break, a second “special” was planned to continue our progress towards the site of the ancient ruins of Volubilis for a tourist and cultural stop. The long crossing of Meknes, one of the imperial cities of the Kingdom was then planned before reaching the superb Michlifen hotel at the end of the stage, where everyone now enjoys a relaxing evening before the second stage which will take place in a loop around Ifrane tomorrow morning. While those keen on regularity have distinguished themselves today on the roads, there is no doubt that this 29th Maroc Classic is already shaping up to be a great vintage, as the program of the following stages remains copious and rich in discoveries and sumptuous landscapes.
