Hot and sunny until Wednesday, then it gets colder and more unstable..

Good afternoon from the rainy Netherlands !

While preparing the rally I have a question: is it possible to visit the Finish Podium (sunday afternoon) or is this ceremony only accessible for Casino VIP-members and media ?

Thanks in advance !

Kind regards,

Sander

O NOOOOO IS FOR EVERYONE including Dutchmen.lol....lol...lol

Weather looks to become nice :-) Some rain might come during QS and SS1 and that is it. It should pretty warm. between +20..+25 for the most of the rally (even during the QS and SS1) and sometimes around +30 degrees (probably on Sunday). Put it is still early to call 100% correctly :-)

Is there some offical rallyguide or specific special stage maps for sale? Or what kind of maps you have when you are going to special stages? If there's offical map for sale where we can buy it on tuesday?

Official programme will be on sale in Service Park and Zappeion and it costs 1.50 Euro.

See rally-maps.com. Great website.

Great website but hard to use in car and hard to print all stages and access roads from there. Or do you have any tips?

Welcome!!!

Loutraki webcam: Total Security |

the organisers added 3 chicanes on ss ziria...wise choice...because the cars could be on the limiter for more than 2-3 kms on these spots

less than a week to go and still in the official site the access roads are not published in English...

yet we want the rally to stay on the calendar....because it is historic.

and if they throw it out it will be once more the dark forces of the bad europeans against the greeks...

hopeless from every aspect you look at it.

No pictures of Armindo's car after his supposed roll? Reports say it was a pretty big one. Well, in terms of damage to the car.

Was he at the same test as Nobre?

Somewhere in Loutraki then? Just name a good place. I can join.
