ongoing war? Scandle?!! Gossip?!!! Details...details.. Trouble in Ralli Paradis?

Tuulilasi was this year official spectator guide. What I liked about the Tuulilasi spectator guide was that the description of the spectator viewing sites was explained with the same accuracy in both Finnish and English, which is of course good for foreign spectators. Only thing I missed was comments about the stages from drivers.

This year Vauhdin Maailma’s spectator guide was crap. Description of viewing places but no closing time of the stages and no parking instructions and what services there was. Also heard in the radio that the VM spectator guide included viewing points that was not allowed.

I just hate going to an event and following the official guides blindly where you end up in boring places... I prefer not to go to an event than doing that.

Again great job with the pictures.

I would add also spots in corners with water splashes. Such pictures are just incredible.

Terrible marketing from Tuulilasi. This was the first time I heard Tuulilasi had something to do with NORF. My eye did not catch any Tuulilasi guide at the stores or magazine stands, but the VM was showing everywhere.

You are right about the parking and services in VM, but on the other hand, the maps were a lot better than earlier, and also driver comments were good.

Surely there would have been parking and other information in VM, but AKK Motorsport did not allowed them that info, because the official was Tuulilasi. What a mess. If there was money issue (what else it can be...) and Tuulilasi was willing to pay more than VM it was very stupid decision from AKK (not a big surprise nowadays) to stop the co-operation with VM. It had been the official guide since 1970´s or something...

There it is by Citroen themselves, in short Citroen engineers have developed for some time now something completely new in the suspension which they finally desided to use and homologate now as the advantage was clear!
If you don`t believe what I said than maybe at least when it comes from Citroen themselves you believe!
And for the last time if you have to homologate it`s alot more than just a setup thing!

Did the Mikko has also this new "setup"...maybe not...
