Calendar

The calendar had been increased from 10 events in 2008, to twelve in 2009. Out went the Istanbul Rally, the Rally de Portugal, the Rallye International du Valais and the China Rally. To be replaced by the Rallye Automobile Monte-Carlo, the Rally Internacional de Curitiba, the Safari Rally, the Rallye Açores, Rally Japan and the Rally of Scotland. Rally Japan was later cancelled, mainly because the major manufacturers looked unlikely to travel to Japan.
