A Mattias 1-2 in Vännäs. Mattias Adielsson win, Mattias Ekström second (about 40 seconds behind) and Thomas Thunström in third. Per Göthberg 4th and Stig Andervang 5th.
Worth recall: Mattias says "when rallying at its best" about SS12 in Rally Vännäs. Note: Look all the way to the end. English speaking rounding up.

Not in the SRC series, but still....
Stay tuned for the Swedish "SuperCupen" rally series round Stormspokalen (Myrskypokaali) 19th of September. About 45K of stages on very good roads.
SP in Gimo, 50K east of Uppsala.
More info, later.
Due to the Corona pandemic the South Swedish Rally have changed dates from 22-23 May to 31 July - 1 August.
http://www.rallysm.se/nyheter/south-...-flyttas-fram/
No decision has been taken yet about Skilling 500 which is scheduled to run on 26-27 June.
Midnattssolsrally have been postoned to 2021. http://www.midnattssolsrallyt.com/co...s_2020_04.html
In Uppland we still working on driving SuperCupen 19th of September. Rally called Stormspokalen.
Some 40+ K stages and 120 K liason.
Stages almost as like Rally Finland. Some used in Midnattssolsrallyt some years ago...
It will be BIG success if carried out.
Not more than 200-300m from SP and Rally HQ you have some excellent accomodation at Gimo Herrgård, well known hotel from many official events and authorities hiring. Full breakfast and Gourmet Restaurant as well as sauna.
Have a look at http://www.gimoherrgard.se/

Looks like the Mirage is just pulling on the rear wheels. No gravelspray from the front wheels as I can see.
Young Oliver Solberg impresses again taking the victory over Pontus Tidemand.

Why spoiling for those who want to have a look tomorrow on All Live, or where ever they broadcast it?
It´s not nice to do.
Nice little event, should be a model for events elsewhere. Would have been nice to see additional names like Kristoffersson or Ahlin. Torsby reminded me a lot of the track surface found on stages on the Scottish Rally in similar weather, which was traditionally held this weekend. Could almost imagine what might have been in an alternative universe!
It reminded me of Rally GB with the rain and mud & the stage a bit like the Sweet Lamb arena section.Quote:

Interesting that Vännäs isn't in next year. Only 5 full length rallies next year and the last three are in southern most Sweden.
Boden/Luleå have expressed interest in taking over the Swedish rally so perhaps this is a small test run?
Had hoped for a return for Umeå as I was thinking about going there, perhaps a comeback in 2022.

Finns några svenskar här som kan och vill diskutera schismen inom Svenska Bilsportförbundet och sambandet mot Svenska Rallyt AB?
Eller finns det svenska forum utanför Facebook som diskuterar. Känner inte till något.

PG Andersson in Ford wins latest round in Swedish championship yesterday in Arvika, some 23,5 secs ahead of Pontus Tidemand in Skoda. Patrik Flodin in RWD Volvo 940 12th o/a...
Flodin is a master with the large Volvo, that I am guessing costs in the range of a Rally3 car!!
