Recce cars and service trucks yes, after Argentina they sail to Australia and after that back home, where they soon leave for Mexico again... Competition cars are transported via air, overhauled before each event ( or a completely new chassis is flewn to the rally).

They commented that "all-Finnish" thing i believe and said that bigger markets like Asia etc consider all Europe as one so there`s no big difference who drives and where the event is held, as long as the result is good.
Like i said in one topic. Probably the policy for all the teams.

Having read this post I must reflect on my day out watching a rally and be very thankful that no cannibals have eaten me today. I am also very happy none of my friends or family have been eaten by cannibals today.
I checked with other rally fans to find out how many rally fans have been eaten by cannibals, apparently it has never happened.
If you want to come to a rally in NZ you will be safe from Cannibals and have a great time.https://twitter.com/KiwiWRCfan adding a fans perspective to Twitter

Maybe it was a cannibal sheep. Who knows?
Visit South Moravia. It is the real paradise

Ever see the movie 'Black Sheep'? Quite hilarious (in a very NZ way)

It is a dangerous planet with plenty of potentially dangerous people. I apologise for being a realist. The most present danger to foreign tourists in NZ is the 'driving on the wrong side of the road' and adventure sports - parachuting, bungee jumping, skiing, atvs, horses, white water sports etc

It was on qualifying stage, he rolled the car and it was said that he won't be able to start the rally. But team managed to repair the car and he did start and dominated drivers like Rossel, Gryazin...
