    All of them tested in Östersund-area, around 600 km !! north from the rallyarea. Not so much people there who are following the test as we do here =)

    So a other good day for me..
    We started in Anttilla, around 40 km north of Torsby watching Tidemand and Veiby test. Good speed with R5-cars !
    Lot of snow there, around 25-40 cm in terrain and at least 10 cm of fresh snow from the night. Should be good for the norther stages.

    Then of to Meeke test. Very spectacular driving by him and went very very wide everywhere.
    Also here around 5 cm fresh snow from the night, and this was south of servicepark.

    My video from Meeke test here.

    I don´t really understand why. I can maybe understand when they doing December-test, because winter are much earlier there than here. But why now, one week before the rally ??

    Much better to test on the roads who have similar character and same conditions.

    Watch the 2 videos from Breen tests.The second one is at normal speed,and if I am not wrong there are common corners between these 2 videos.
    Can your educated eye tell if 2017 videos are faster the ones from 2016? And by how much, 1sec per minute or perhaps even more? Or do we need to wait until Mexico or even Portugal to find out?

    That's what I'm wanting to know. I saw written somewhere that he tested but havent seen any vids or pics. He needs as much seat time in this car as possible
