It does work for me. Perhaps cleaning your browser's cache could help?

FRC Facebook post clears this matter as such: "After some investigations, the log (which is not much of a log, more likely a smaller piece of wood) has been brought up to the road by deep cut made by previous competitors. It have blocked some competitors route which is a shame."

Inessa lost it after high-speed jump: little video: Video: Playboy-malli ralliautolla katolleen - MTV3.fi - Urheilu - Ralli - Uutiset

Where is this team from? Norland or Finway?

Good idea certainly to merge Mikkelsen's flag and Markkula's :) .

Printsport is Finnish team but the car is owned by Even Rally from Norway.

This episode is going to be examined, some of the drivers said that the log disappeard after few hits and whit no traces at all.. And there were people spectating on that place... And that there were a pile of logs nearby.. But still nothing official so lets wait the info

Could it be just for the fun of it? It's true that she isn't much of a rally driver, but the buzz is there - even if not very sophisticated buzz...

I think the spectators that were at the place where she crashed, hadn't made this sign (beforehand) too seriously:

Timmu Kõrge got stuck yesterday because he was avoiding raindeer :-)

No Tom! Wait few minutes and you´ll see Juha´s time. His starting place for last two stages is waaay behind because his team changed the gearbox after SS8 and Juha got some penalty..

There it is - Juha´s time!! Juha Salo and Marko Salminen won the Arctic Lapland Rally 2013 with 1min 37s margin from Andreas Mikkelsen and Mikko Markkula.

Congrats!!!!

Yep I saw Salo's penalties...so Juho winner despite all ;)

Problem on SS10 ??? :confused: No more times coming after the top22... :mark:

Great drive by Juha! Not so great by Andreas. Great by Joonas as well :-) Congradulations to the winners

Onboard with Inessa Tushkanova off

This year in the FRC R4 cars have a more free engine regulations, so called FinR. The engine can be tuned a bit more and they can use a bigger restrictor.

Restrictor is 1 mm bigger. There are some other liberties to engine as well, but I don't have the regs here at the moment, so...

(hope this is the correct thread)

Hi,

I'm searching for some information about F Cup and Jämsä ralli. So far I was able to find these pages:
Osakilpailut | F-Cup - F-Cup rallisarjan virallinen sivusto
JMK-Ralli 2013 - aukjamsanaijat.123kotisivu.fi
https://akk.autourheilu.fi/Public/Ha...a3a040d&full=1

I'm thinking about visiting this so I'm looking for some more information from spectator point of view - mainly more details about route and maps.
Also I've read about tickets but more details about where they are sold will also be welcome.
And off course any other details that could be important :)

Thank you in advance.

My video from Rovaniemi... Arctic Lapland Rally was a great experience for me - the atmosphere was incredible and something like I have never experienced before. :) I'm definitely going back there some day!

Puuuh... Arctic Rally behind. Long 3 days + 2 long travel days, many great friends again and a lot more experience also. 7th subsequent Arctic Rally for me. Maybe (and hopefully) some day only as a spectator there :)
