The Federation Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) World Motorsport Council today confirmed the date for the 2013 Vodafone Rally de Portugal, as April 11th to 14th.

The event, organized by the Automóvel Club de Portugal (ACP), will be the fourth round of the 2013 FIA World Rally Championship, as it was this year, following Rallye Monte Carlo, Rally Sweden and Rally Mexico.
