The WRC will skip across the vast Atlantic Ocean towards South America for the first of two back-to-back events on the southern continent, for round 11 of 14 of the 2026 world championship.
A total of 22 stages will be contested across a condensed three-day event, with the sole shakedown event taking place on Thursday morning – local time – with a quick 5.6km pre-event test.
After completing the weekend of stages, it will amount to a total of 358.88km of competitive Paraguayan terrain.
Friday provides the longest test of the entire event with the Yerbateras stage that lasts a staggering 33.88km, which will be repeated in the morning and afternoon loops. Both loops are set to close out with the short, 2.5km, Autodromo super special stage.
Unlike recent events, Sunday will not be a sprint to the finish as there will be more stages on offer to dice up Super Sunday. A total of five stages will conclude the final day with two passes of the Encarnación and Artigas tests, separated by the single sprint through Artigas Oeste.
So, what is the stage starting times and the itinerary for the upcoming WRC event?
