The rally consisted of 15 special stages and took place over 19–21 March 2010. The rally was also a round of the South American Rally Championship and the Argentine Rally Championship. Introduction The rally started in Villa Carlos Paz, a city in the center-north of the province of Córdoba, on Friday 19 March with a 3.30 km mi on super special stage in the town. The event was made up of 15 gravel stages covering a total of 238.62 km mi on all completed in daylight. The event on Saturday consisted of seven stages and was centred on the town of San Agustín and around Valle Hermoso on Sunday. The final stage was a repeat of the super special stage in Villa Carlos Paz. Nasser Al-Attiyah was seeded number 1 in his Škoda Fabia S2000, with local Federico Villagra taking number 2 in his Ford Fiesta S2000. Other entrants included current championship leader Juho Hänninen and reigning champion Kris Meeke. A total of 63 cars took part in the event. Results Škodas dominated the event, winning all bar one stage of the event. After Kris Meeke won the opening stage in Villa Carlos Paz, Juho Hänninen took control of the rally on the second stage and never lost the lead. Hänninen won eleven of the remaining fourteen stages, as he won the rally by 51 seconds. The other two drivers to win a stage, Guy Wilks and Jan Kopecký finished second and third to complete a clean sweep of the podium for Škoda. Kopecký was the main beneficiary of the retirement of Meeke on the road section after stage fourteen, as the suspension spot-weld failed on the Northern Irish driver's Peugeot during the stage.http://www.ircseries.com/html/readNews.asp?id=1650 Meeke retires from Rally Argentina 2010-03-21 2010-03-21 ircseries.com Intercontinental Rally Challenge https://web.archive.org/web/20110713055736/http://www.ircseries.com/html/readNews.asp?id=1650 2011-07-13 deadhttp://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/82293 Meeke frustrated by suspension failure David Evans 2010-03-22 2010-03-22 autosport.com Haymarket Publications https://web.archive.org/web/20100324050010/http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/82293 24 March 2010 live Overall Pos.
