Who can attend the rally?
Spectators were only allowed with condition that the rally will run in green mode and in strict compliance with epidemiological requirements. This means that rally tickets must be personalized and spectators must present a Covid-19 vaccination or recovery certificate as well as an identity document. Only children under the age of 12 are allowed to attend the rally without a Covid-19 certificate. As all these documents will be checked and scanned at ticket control points, spectators must foresee additional time for this, as well as prepare all listed documents in a timely manner so that controls can run smoothly without queuing. Therefore, printed rally tickets are recommended. Upon arrival at ticket control points, appropriate face masks must be worn and a distance of 2m between households or passengers of different cars must be kept. The capacity of the spectator areas is limited and the staff of the ticket control points may deny access to any of the spectator areas where the maximum number of spectators has been reached.
Epidemiological requirements
Due to the requirements, spectators must take into account that close contact between competitors and spectators is strictly prohibited, so spectators will not have access to the rally centre or service park, as well spectators may not approach the start and finish areas of the special stages. Therefore, to access the spectator points, the appropriate driveways shown on the maps published in the spectator guide must be used. Spectators have to keep a distance of 2 meters between households or passengers of different cars. It is mandatory to use face masks when you need to help a rally car off the road.
Maps and descriptions of special stages

All spectator areas have a waypoint image and pre-prepared Waze and Google Maps routes that can be accessed by scanning or clicking on a QR code. Although the routes are designed so as not to cross the special stage, please make sure that no errors have occurred.
Rallija starta secība
Pirms rallija automobiļiem trasē dosies drošības automašīnas, jeb tā sauktās "0" ekipāžas, un rallija automobiļi tiem sekos starta numuru secībā. Vienīgi pēdējos divos ātrumposmos nestartēs rallijsprinta dalībnieki. Rallija dalībnieku saraksts un ātrumposmu rezultāti būs atrodami mājas lapā www.autorally.lv
The sequence of the rally
Safety cars, or so-called "0" crews, will go on the track before the rally cars. Rally cars will follow them in the order of the start numbers. Competitors of rallysprint will not start in the last two special stages. The list of rally participants and the results of the special stages will be available on the website www.autorally.lv
The most important things about safety
The winter rally is especially dynamic and it must be taken into account by the spectators. Please remember that you must always follow the instructions of the safety staff, do not cross the track and turn your back to the rally cars during the race - always keep every rally car in sight. When helping a rally car off the road, never lift or push the car behind the wheel arches, as the studs of sports tires can cause significant injuries. Viewers should remember that after the end of the special stage, the road is only open when it has been done by a safety crew with a green light.
