The WRC remains in the southern hemisphere this weekend for the 12th round of the 2027 championship, Rally Chile BioBio. It is a challenging gravel event, which can sometimes be impacted by troubling foggy conditions, on fast, flowing stages, meaning pace notes have to be perfect.

Following back-to-back wins for Toyota’s Sami Pajari, the Finnish driver has cut down the deficit to the championship leader, Elfyn Evans. Now only 20 points stand between the two championship contenders, with the rest of the season under threat of not going all the way.

This comes after reports, from DirtFish, that Toyota and Hyundai are unable to travel to the season finale in Saudi Arabia as a result of company-wide travel restrictions, given the continued tension in the region.

Across the weekend, the crews are set to tackle of 311.18km of Chilian terrain across the event’s 16 stages from Friday to Sunday. So, what is the stage guide and starting times for each test?
