    By size yes, but thread is "all-season" in those conditions mostly. Anyway pointless crap with a 380hp 4wd designed to go flat-out, not surviving at speeds close to zero. In Monte due to different conditions occasionally yes, but not in a winter rally.

    It would be a shame if Cholmondeley goes from WRGB as it's so popular and easily accessible. If they replace it with another similar spectator stage then that's not so bad, but if not I think they will be losing a great promo for the event.

    Auriol was part of teams from VAG, Ford, PSA and Toyota. He could probably get at least a R5 if he really wants.

    Toyota or Ford for Auriol, please. Although I'd most rather see him in a Sierra Cosworth.

    Auriol also says he won't do Finland, but maybe a tarmac event or a gravel rally he likes, such as Portugal or Argentina. He may resort to a 2016 car for the lower cost.

    Grönholm just turned 50 and seems like he's passing the opportunity to do a birthday rally like Alen, Kankkunen, Vatanen, Salonen and Mikkola did before. At least he says he doesn't want to do Rally Finland, and Tommi wouldn't give him a car.

    Grönholm said he would rather have done Sweden than Finland. So probably no WRC event for him

    Suomenruotsalaiset perkele?

    Not so serious as much as wondering if this is correct (or intelligible) Finnish.
