Yeah.
I quite enjoyed it, just milling around watching the presentations.

I presume it was held at the Autosport Show to generate interest in the WRC for 2018; so, how many non rally (general motorsport) journalists were there, taking an interest.

Yesterday and today were trade only so I assume thats when the majority of journos were around, but I'll have a look to see if any are still around tomorrow and also post some photos up if the cars are still there.
