    Rumours say that Gardemeister, Al Qassimi, Papadimitriou and Gikas will not start the rally.
    There is also the issue about Carlsson, so WRCars will be less.
    That is not the only problem for the Acropolis organizers. SS 9-20 will be cancelled due to the mayor of Imittos will not permit the cars to pass from his region and also is uncertain that the SSS will take place in racetrack because the jockey club thinks that WRCars will cause problems to horses. Courts will decide on Friday if the SSS will take place!

    Sounds like a really big mess if all that is true.

    Carlsson can not start, because of his penalty I think. (not that he would have anyway)

    Mikkelsen WRC plans are for Finland, Germany, Ireland and Wales. His next rally is Donegal (Irish Tarmac Championship) June 15-17. I think his 18th birthday is June 22nd.

    I think there is little doubt that Kronos are trying to get Gardemeister or Al-Qassimi in the second Xsara car for Acropolis. They cannot afford a rally with only one car. It's already a difficult task for them to reach 10 rallies with two cars.

    If Kronos doesn't manage the 10 rallies with two cars, does any of you know the penalty? Will they loses all their MT2 points or will they get a fine? - or will they "just" lose the entry for next year?
