Maybe it's good to put separate link to the timetable: http://www.autosport.cz/zavody/soubor.php?f=14774
The best news is that Semetín is back :)
Good looking schedule! Active spectator could see 8 or 9 stages. Also happy about the return of Semetín. My memory might fail here, but if it's run after Trojak, is the direction same as in 2010, not the more legendary version which was used last time in 2011. Also, second run of Pindula starts after sunset - though call.
No Halenkovice nor Kudlovice? Zlutava and Jankovice must share some of the roads respectively, I guess.
Semetín will be in my opinion run in direction to Vsetín - that means the jumps are at the finish. Both directions are good for me ;) For Pindula the sunset will be just before start. In the forest it might be quite dark especially for later crews, yes. Stage Jankovice uses parts of both Kudlovice and Halenkovice stages. It will bring back the gravel connection road between them. The combination will be really nice stage! Stage Žlutava uses different part of Halenkovice stage.
Nice stages :-)
Timetable for historic cars is out. This time there will be two fields of historics. One competitive and one only show as normally.

Škoda confirmed all three crews! Kopecký, Lappi and Wiegand.
Shakedown confirmed to be same with 2008 but slightly longer. That was the best shakedown in many years (also for the crews I think) but we'll see how the spectator safety measures will be this year. In fact its whole route was part of last year's TV stage Slušovice but reversed (the best and bumpiest part of the stage).
