While overseas rallies are conducted on public roads, in Singapore motorsport events take place exclusively in carparks. The current location is the National Stadium of Singapore, owing to the size of the carparks and their convenient location. Unlike most other forms of racing, rallies are not run with competitors racing against each other at the same time.
Rallies are a race against the clock and the fastest time at the end of the day wins the race.
A rally beings when the cars are flagged off, usually at an area called Parc Ferme. Competitors make their way to the start of the event with the assistance of a special map, called a roadmap. Diagrams on this map are called Tulips, although nobody really knows how they got that name. If you are wondering how drivers drive and read at the same time, they don't. This is unique to rallying, as most other forms of motorsport only have one driver in the car.
