[Sulland]

Finnskog rally is one stage from finished, Østberg is leading by 2 min, and will win.

Brynildsen had the Skoda engine fail him, and Grøndal had intercom issues on 1 and tech issues on 2.

[pettersolberg29]

Great result for young Marius Aasen too - 3rd is his best ever finish I believe?

[Sulland]

Yes, and he is a young gun coming along. First class win in 4 wd i think, and 3rd total is not bad.

"Old" Trond Sveinsvoll is also getting the "wheelrust" out of his system.

[andre93]

Registration plate of Brynildsen's Fabia??
Thank'you!

[Sulland]

I think he was still using the same car as in Sweden, BA S 135, but have not seen the plate from the pictures I have seen from Finnskog.

[Micke_VOC]

That are correct

The silly season and build up for 2012 is underway in Norway:

Mads Østberg/ Adapta has bought a Fiesta RRC to use in Norway and German Asphalt series for 2012.
Young talented Marius Aasen has bought Mads´ old Fiesta S2000, and will use that for Norwegian series, and selected SWRC rounds in 2012. He has gotten a new Co-driver as well, Veronica Engan (Mads´ Girlfriend) will guide him in 2012.

[Walach]

So Anders Grøndal has to find new co-driver. Thanks for info :)

What do you mean selected SWRC rounds? Is he planning to do SWRC in 2012 or just some rallies with S2000 car?

[Sulland]

Just some rallies in a S2000 car to gain experiense at that level.

[bluuford]

Just some rallies in a S2000 car to gain experiense at that level.
Thnx. However, there is a good chance that he might be named by ASN for rally Sweden. Some of it is in the Norway ;-)

Good question, but we are getting a few R2s in 2012, 2x Fabia, 2x Fiesta and 1x Twingo.


I think that the fact that we drive either on snow or gravel, very litle on asfalt does that 4wd seems to be preferred, or an old rwd car in the national classes seems to be what people want to enjoy themselves in.

Yep indeed...so much rallies on snow can easily explain why in general 2WD cars are let aside by drivers :mark:

Good ol fight in Mountain Rally Norway between Mikkelsen and Østberg (and S2000 v RRC) Mikkel is in the lead, 5 sec in front of MadMads (http://www.mrally.no/resultater2/5).

[Donalduck]

Isn't mads first on the road? is that a big disadvantage this morning?

[Viking]

Isn't mads first on the road? is that a big disadvantage this morning?

That is depending who of them you ask ;)

Mads said it was a big disadvantage on RallyRadio, Andreas was not happy with his setup and he thought Mads should be faster in the RRC car.

[Mirek]

Quite surprised that Bieltvedt is faster than Gröndal. Aasen out?

[Viking]

Yes, Bieltvedt has been fast, Grøndal not happy with his setup..

Aasen out, tecnical (water pump)

Mads had an 6'th gear spin in the long stage, Andreas now up to 18sec lead.

[RS]

Looks like Andreas has won.

What restrictor was Ostberg running? His times were quite close.

[Walach]

Again, surprised with Grøndal´s result. Something wrong with the car, or bad day for him? I expected him to be faster.

[Sulland]

Grøndals full spec N4 engine had some issues before the rally, so he had to put in a standard engine. Thats why he could not match the other N4's.

[Coach 2]

Ford should have sent Jari-Mati Latvala or Petter Solberg in Finnskog too, because Miko Hirvonen is no match for Henning Solberg and Mads Östberg...look at gaps on SS3(23km long) :mark:

At least Henning managed to take 2nd from Mads with a weaker car :p :

I am sure Mikko's primary aim is testing and not winning this rally. I don't think these results will be repeated in Sweden.

ooh awesome but im seeing mads ostberg struggline to catch mikko. well i hope he winds on wrc.

[Viking]

-30 !!! degrees in Finnskogen area, some are saying that icecrystals (snowsmoke) hanging in the air is a big problem for all behind Hirvonen.

[Tom206wrc]

Problem for Craig Breen in SS5 ??? Puncture ??? :s

[Tom206wrc]

Now equal overall time for Mads and Henning after SS6 :p :
Who will be ahead after the longest stage(SS7, rerun of SS3=23km long) ??? ;)

huh how did mikko make it up to the top...

Seriously?

[Viking]

Problem for Craig Breen in SS5 ??? Puncture ??? :s

From twitter

Craig Breen, Rally Finnskog off on SS5, driving through stage & straight back to service. hoping to fix car & get final 2 tests.

[Tom206wrc]

Many drivers behind Breen have their time on SS6 but not him for the moment :mark:

[Viking]

huh how did mikko make it up to the top...

Well, it is Finnskog (Finn forrest) :)

[Sulland]

Why Henning Solberg in Mitsubishi and not Ford for Finnskog Rally :confused:

He just bought the car back. He used to drive that same car in the past.
The 6.5 is like a Youngtimer compared to the WRCars of Mikko and MadMads, but he obviously has not forgotten how that car need to be driven!!

[Tom206wrc]

What happens with Pontus Tidmand ??? He's written "retired in SS1" but appears on SS5 and 6 ??? :rolleyes:

Encouraging speed from Henning - to beat Ostberg is impressive. Hopefully he can show his true speed for the first time in a while in Sweden and maybe secure a budget for the rest of the season.

[userwave]

gotta say I am very impressed with Henning's performance in an older spec car (Evo 6?) against Mikko in a state of the art World Rally Car.

[Viking]

Mikkelsen must have some kind of problem.Lets wait to enlight us some Norway mates.

As I understand both Mikkelsen and Østberg had an puncture on ss7.

[tolis]

Mikkelsen had a spin and a puncture.

[Mirek]

gotta say I am very impressed with Henning's performance in an older spec car (Evo 6?) against Mikko in a state of the art World Rally Car.

Since they were most likely on different kind of tyres it doesn't say much.

[Coach 2]

Asen had a puncture in two stages, Mads on one and had problems with snow smoke in SS3.
Hirv tested different settup after all services (3).
Henning had great advantages of narrow tires, and I'm not sure what size he had on the restriktor.
But I can tell that Hirv was very impressive

[tolis]

Henning: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4B7FE7yGf6k

[skarderud]

Don't think we can put to much in these times, it was mostly a testsession :)
Mads car was ready friday night, due to missing parts.

Henning use narrow tires, maybe 1sek/km faster?
His old mitsubishi, 2sek/km slower?

[VFTS]

What about Petter Kristiansen, ex-leader R2 and 2WDs(after SS6) :confused:

Kristiansen rolled at ss7 and retired, but there where only bodydamages at his car.

[Micke_VOC]

What happens with Pontus Tidmand ??? He's written "retired in SS1" but appears on SS5 and 6 ??? :rolleyes:

Pontus retired between the start and SS1 with throttle-problems.
Restarted on SS3, were he stopped on the stage and took away some freezing protection fore the cooler. ( Was around -30 degrees)
On the other five stages he was the fastest 2wd car...

[pettersolberg29]

I've been half following the career of Marius Aasen for a bit now and he seems to be maturing but not quite reaching his full potential in terms of out and out pace yet in my opinion. For those who follow the Norwegian Championship more than myself, is he a big talent for the future or is he destined for mediocrity?

[skarderud]

I think aasen is a talent, time will show how big :) he was fast last year in impreza, at least.

You might now that braking also depends on tyres...

[bluuford]

To me, it looked like Henning didnt brake at all :-)

However, it was very nice video.. I have really missed such videos where you can see so many different cars with different sound. Now we had DS3WRC, Fiesta WRC, Fiesta S2000, Mitsu Evo, Proton, Twingo, Fabia S2000, Impreza.. all in 5 minutes :-)

[Viking]

You might now that braking also depends on tyres...

I might :) But I also sort of remember that stagetimes i Rally Sweden was not that different from previous years when they startet to use the wider tire.
Actually the "footprint" of the tire is not that much wider and the threadpattern is more open.

I found this from Subarunorway. Looks like this old car suits Henning well.

I think the narrow tire is better when there is an soft top (snow) over the ice.

its useless to compare snow road with different cars,and 2 years between them.Fia asked for different tyres to slow down average speeds.Isn t it enough for you?
except that just wait some days to see Henning vs Mikko on same tyres,and same power/torque.

[Viking]

Fia asked for different tyres to slow down average speeds.

Well did they?? maybe i'm getting old, I somewhat remember they said the tires should fit the 15" gravel rims...

But if you look at every year I don't think you will find stagetimes as fast than in 2010 with the wider "slower" tires

[skarderud]

except that just wait some days to see Henning vs Mikko on same tyres,and same power/torque.

That will, sadly, never happen. Mikkos citroen is superior what Henning get from Ford!

yes the 15'' rims/tyres were for cost cutting,but the wider not.
2010 fast times were on Pirellis,now with Michelins

See what Jari said about wider tyres at 2011 Sweden...

http://www.motorstv.com/sites/default/files/livecoverage/images/ford.gifJari-Matti LAtvala on WRC Radio. "It was a difficult morning. We had the wide tyre and they can't go through the snow and you end up driving on top of the snow, which makes it very slippery.

Well that only proves JML agree with me :) see my previos post.
Using an 7" wide 15" gravel rim is why they are wider, not because FIA told Pirelli or Michelin to make them wider..

But let us just stop it there and bring on Sweden :)

[dimviii]

Well that only proves JML agree with me :) see my previos post.
i saw your previous post,and while Jari said that wider tyres can t find grip on ice,you said that they are faster because 2010 times were better.You can t compare so much differen t things,different make tyres(michelin vs pirelli)different dimensions tyres, different cars(1,6 vs 2,0) and 1 year different snow covered road,while in the same day,in the same road there is so much difference from first pass,to second pass for the same stage.

Using an 7" wide 15" gravel rim is why they are wider, not because FIA told Pirelli or Michelin to make them wider..
Fia knew that a wider tyre is slower,don t you think? ;) or you think that fia didn t know that you can t produce a 145 section width tyre in a 7'' rim?

You are giving FIA too much credit ;)

I am starting to wonder if you has seen the "wrc" tires, yes the "footprint" is wider but not in a long way as wide as an normal (gravel) 205/15
studs are the same as before and the pattern is more open. I would say that a car standing still has as much rubber and studs at the ground
as before, but yes, wider if you get what I mean.

- speed of the R2s
- a real motorsport sound on the N4 Subarus. About time!!
- speed on gravel for the Fiesta R1
- many nice old quick Volvos and M3s.

A good rally day!

This weekend a completely new rally Rally Telemark is taking place.

Mads Østberg is testing his WRC Fiesta.

You can follow the results from here: www.rallytelemark.no (http://www.rallytelemark.no/)

[Fly]

Always interesting to follow the fights:
In N3 Bieltvedt and Grøndal
In 2wd Kristiansen, Larsen, Kjær, Røkland, Skjærmoen...
Btw, duting this season, Larsen looks faster than FFST winner Røkland with same car.

[skarderud]

Its really good speed among the N3 guys, really impressing speed! They beat N4's, s2000 and old wrc's, difference in drivers of course, but still. Really good fight between bieltvedt and grøndal to ss4, there grøndal has an puncture and a small of, and lost his powerstearing. So bieltvedt won. Both these guys could win pwrc if they had the money to do it proper.

[Sulland]

For the 'rodent' classes; Also impressive to see the speed of the R2 guys, and how evenly matched they are.
But the older N3 cars also had good speed, and the pricetag btw the two classes is quite big.....

[Tom206wrc]

Sulland, do you know if some norwegian drivers ordered the new 208 R2 for 2013 season ???? :confused:
Because I've just seen entrylist of Sigdals Rally, only Fiestas, Fabias and Twingos in that class(R2)...quite frustrating :mark:

[eppel]

I don't think so. Peugeot Norway is not interested in rally anymore.

Two more drivers have mentioned that they are planning to upgrade from Fiesta N3 to R2, but nothing on cartype.

[Sulland]

Rally Finnskog is next in NM 2 Feb. Østberg and Prokop will test for Sweden, Eyvind Brynildsen will drive his own Evo 9, and Mikkelsen a Fabia S2000.

[Coach 2]

Oh, thanks a lot!! Will it be continued with all rounds?

Yes, always, for years.

[Sulland]

Østberg won, but had challenges with car for the first SS's, and then for the second round, his wide WRC type tyres did not fit the "track" that had come after the 100 cars had passed. Mikkelsen also had his challenges, but came a clear 2nd.

R2 was the closest call, Røkland in Fiesta won 4 sec in front of Kjær in a Twingo Evo.

[pettersolberg29]

What's the view on Rokland by Norwegians? He is mentioned a lot it seems, and I've seen him once or twice in the UK, but doesn't seem to stand out too much. Has he got the potential for the top or just the top of lower classes?

[BDuncan]

Good news.

Up and coming young talent. In many ways R2 has become the tightest and biggest class in Norway in 2013!

Onboard of Lappi-Ferm from Numedals Rally SS2. Easy to understand how they lost few seconds there for Subarus, Skoda hitting a maximum of around 170 km/h at the fast straights. I'm not an expert on driving styles, but isn't Lappi's style rather calm, stripped down, not overdoing it. At least the crew is relaxed; midstage Ferm says "that went well", Lappi replies "it went as it was meant to".

Gotta like their attitude in the cabin, always great to watch! :) Also some new developments to the notes, I guess the international experience has brought them.

[Tom206wrc]

Don't forget Rally Sörland this week-end ;)

[Tom206wrc]

Fantastic podium(3rd)for Pontus Tidemand in his Ford Fiesta R2 in Sörland Rally :eek: :up:

[skarderud]

Acording to intevjues at last NM round, lots of drivers going to change cars!

Sure is try and frustøl in fiesta R5's, but atleast brynhildsen is in an R5 to ( not Ford), grøndal and bieltvedt, and some others, is also discusing R5's.
Grøndal is interesting, as an Subaru carshop owner (his family owns bilbutikken) he have to find something different than a Subaru. If not an R4, but not to many of those, and is they good enought?

Røkland most likely in an Citroën R3. Larsen, aasen, and all the other R2' guys looking for different options for next year to.

Seems just kjær and rolfsen in twingo R2 is sure they going to use those next year.

[skarderud]

Frank Tore Larsen, norwegian Champion 2012 in R2, is change to an fiesta R5 for 2014!

3 R5's for sure, more to come....

[Tom206wrc]

Rumour for Brynildsen was a 208 T16 me thinks :confused:

Anyway I hope to see 208 R2s this time in Norway(2014) :bounce:

[skarderud]

Yes, i think so to. But maybe things has changed, he is doing GB with fiesta.

Maybe some start the season with an s2000 or N4 and waiting for Peugeot and Citroën to arrive.

In fact they were very fast with the cars they drive. To bad for Aasen for withdraw when he was on 3rd position.
Great victory of Frank Tore Larsen on the debut with the Fiesta R5.

[traxx]

Ohh, nice start for Pontus Tidemand, he is in front of Mads with 2 scratches !!
Is Mads sweeping the fresh snow by being first on the road ?

[Rallyper]

Pontus leads by over 30 secs after three tests...

[traxx]

In fact, difficult to compare these 2 guys, they don't have the same tires. WRC tires for Mads, Norvegian championship tires (more narrow) for Pontus.

[Juha_Koo]

What tyres is Tidemand using? Mads is on WRC spec wide Michelins.

Edit. Traxx was faster. But is it sure that Tidemand is on narrow tyres? Wouldn't make much sense is this is preparation to Rally Sweden... The image in Twitter is showing Mads presenting wide and narrow tyres to TV crew, but it could be so that he's showing it because late-runners have narrow tyres, not Tidemand...

[efe-e]

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Be0RTsHIEAAtScJ.jpg

Pontus' & Mads' tyres.

[Rallyper]

Tidemand on narrow tyres. He says he wants as much speed as possible like the conditions in Rally Sweden. He´s doing his own thing, he says on Norwegian rallyradio. Now taking a 44 sec lead on SS4...

Mads having problems with a lot of snow, driving first on the road.

Pontus Tidemand
It's a win in ?#?MountainRally? with Mads Østberg in second. Big time difference with a perfectly natural explanation. Mads were on WRC tyres - we weren't. Happy with the day, we've had a good progress and it feels like we've found the speed. Bring on ?#?RallySweden? now!

[nafpaktos]

Is it rational(pontus) not to use wrc-spec tyres for Mountain Rally when this event is a <shakedown>for rally sweden?Can somebody explain to me??

[Juha_Koo]

Explanation from Tidemand was "getting as much high-speed experience as possible". I don't understand it but I'm sure he and Even have thought it through.

[rage82]

It looks strange to me too! But maybe he wants to get confident as much as he can with the high speed and in rally Sweden with the slow wrc tyres he will be pushing on his maximum already knowning where his limit is with the faster narrow tyres?

This particular rally counts only for WRC champiomcship, so you must obey all wrc regulations including tires. If the event counts also for national championchip and your entry is only for the national event you can use tires allowed by the national regulations but of course you will not appear in the WRC final classification.

[nafpaktos]

I dont find stage times on ewrc.why mads used an r5?he will not drive r5 on rally sweden,i suppose just to get the felling,no other reason.last year he competed again to a winter rally with his wrc and he used wrc tyres (so he lost to pontus cause he used national rally tyres)and i could understand that test as pre-sweden test, but this year's test is a bit strange.if he used same tyres with anders and had no problems with the car i think mads should go for deer hunting and leave rallying(ok i exaggerate a bit).remember what kris did with r5 on rally condroz.

[mousti]

Because that R5 is from Adapta Motorsport, they don't have a DS3 WRC and this entry is fully on him. Citroën didn't support him on this rally I guess.

An Grondal was just 2 cars after...

Sweeping meaning here that cars 1-50 were mostly 2WD cars (and most of them RWD!) so its completely different lines when arriving to the stages with 4WD R5... Mads was 49th car on the road (check http://racemode.no/startliste.php?r=rhad15 )

Interesting entrylist in Finnskog this coming week-end ;)

[Tom206wrc]

Why Victor Danneborg starts behind Miriam Aasli in Finnskog today saturday :confused:
On the long stages he could stay blocked behind her and lose time :mark:

[Rallyper]

Mads has good pace today. 31 secs ahead of Eyvind after two stages...

[skarderud]

Mads had the new ds3wrc and wide 15" tyres, eyvind in a rrc with the narrow 16" tyres. The first two stages was perfect ice and smooth, so i actually think the wider tyres didnt was a handicap. Eyvind beat mads on the rerun, then it was loose outside the tracks.
Both was really happy and ready to do theire best in sweden. Both can win theire classes in sweden.

[skarderud]

Danneborg had his first outing in the ds3, so its due to a-b-c driver system. But he learnt alot this weekend he said:)

[Tom206wrc]

What happened exactly to Olle-Christian Veiby in Finnskog :confused:

I've read "excluded for forbidden assistance" but it looks like he was stuck in snow and spectators helped him to be back on the road :confused:

[skarderud]

He was pushing too much over flying finish, and got stuck in the corner after ff. It isnt allowed to get assistance in the controlzone, so he got excluded. He was 3. fastest of all in the last stage, so if he keep it together he will be a guy to watch for in the wrc3 in sweden! He is fast:)

OC Veiby is only competitor in WRC3 at Sweden, so he should drive slow and take those 25 points.

I'm quite sure he isn't going to take it slow, he is there to learn. Maybe even fastest 2wd car:)
