Not many surprises there:

There are some Lancer Evo X ! We can compare its performance with the older model.

Nice to see Katsuhiko Taguchi in an Evo X, he won last year Group N in Rally Japan and was faster than the PWRC drivers. Probably we will have a first indication if the Evo X is better than the Evo IX after this rally.

Severe lack of international entries, you normally get a few Aussies and Kiwi's but nothing this year.

Rautenbach only in priority2, so only 13 WRC total
Jari Ketomaa is the only rallytourist, all the rest non-priority drivers come from Japan

[Tom206wrc]

Not an exciting entry :(

It's a pitty the lack from Urmo, I think that he could do a very nice rally there.

Excited to see the Evo X

[CABAIO E'LONA]

...and many evo X

I'm betting all the top four drivers will crash out and Matthew Wilson on the podium.

Yeah, find it really hard to call the 2 times Finnish champion and the driver 3rd in PWRC a rallytourist...

Two Giraudet's as co driver, Dennis with Pavlides and his son Mathieu with Brynildsen
