I can tell you that I almost could not recognize some stages from last year. Many sections are sooooo different.. the amount of leaves, needles... all kind of dirt on the stages is amazing, hopefully no brushing It will be much more difficult event this year. If half of the field can survive first day without any incident, I would be surprised
*note: last year Ogier puncture, Evans went wide and hit something got puncture, Rovanpera hit the mountain heavily and broke wheel, Breen crashed, Taka had major incident with bank (run up of very steep bank without any major consequences). Kaijto hit wall after tunnel and retired (tunnel is now asphalt ), Sordo burned down his car, last day heavy rain during last two stages.. and the amount of fans queueing for autographs was amazing! This is really nice rallyColins Crest = Möldri Mätas

Looking forward to this one, seems unpredictable! Also I like the itinerary, I can watch before work and in my lunch break friday, usually I have to split my attention a bit

leaving my timezone conversion stupidity aside...
This is further evidence that Colin Clark is the best WRC interviewer and if WRC wants to grow they should integrate his recce/morning/midday interviews. The rapport and banter he has with the drivers is great and creates a nice feeling for fans to know the crews. It's also entartaining enough to follow the whole thing. I criticize him for his "driver ratings" and George Donaldson did as well, even himself admitted he does it to create talking points. The man is not a journalist but this kind of interviews are pure gold and the WRC are complete idiots to ignore this.

Scenery is nice, but Rally2's on these type of roads aren't that interesting to watch at least
