Already on Friday afternoon, the competitors could get introduced to their cars on the shorter technical stage of the Sosnová circuit. Then, on Saturday morning, the battles began first at the town stage in Mladá Boleslav, followed by two more intertown sections in the afternoon, which were repeated after service breaks.
