    Quite a disappointment is the times of Ketomaa. I understand there was hardly something to fight for after the mistake but still...

    Something strange with them. All Kinnunen, Korhonen, Lindroos, Pinomaki... has something like +30 min time in last stage. What happened?

    One of the 4WD drivers had a gearbox broken and blocked the road for top 2WD drivers.

    Sipilä's Mitsu got it's transmission completety jammed and therefore the car was not moving at all because all wheels were locked... Required quite an effort to move the car.

    No corrected times for SM3 guys because regulations state that you can't be given a notional time unless stopped in the stage by SOS sign, etc. A block caused by another competitor is not a valid reason. Lots of discussion about the case going on...

    Unfortunately I was not able to go to Mikkeli because of other commitments.

    Mirek, very stupid. Honestly, I didn't know that rules are like this. In this case, where a driver of different class prevented other class drivers to run stage properly, how about cancelling the stage from them? If first runners go through, nominal times for the stopped. This is just cruel.

    But as said, the justice in this case was that all top 2WD guys suffered from this, so championship wise it's not too effective.
