I think that decent enough entry for this side event. If I get to see them once, it's cool, however Rally Finland is for WRC.

Vetomies is a good idea between stages that will be run twice. Prevents people getting bored. Especially in Ouninpohja there is more to spectate on the top drivers of Vetomies compared to some of the foreign entries with group n and 2wd cars in NORF. And from a competitor point of view you'll get to taste some of the atmosphere that separates NORF from the normal Finnish rallies.

I was sure that NORF will have more wrc entries from local drivers.Who will replace Al Qassimi in NORF?Maybe Hanninen?

In general, it's great idea. If you spectate the rally so that you stay at one stage driven twice per day, it's superb idea. If you spectate the rally so that you run from stage to stage following the top drivers, you most likely miss Vetomies. Vetomies at the end of the day would be good idea, but now as most stages are run twice, after the second run road conditions wouldn't be much to cherish from. But for sure top 2wd drivers give you more show in the stages than average tourist Evo IX drivers. It's also a bit of calling card for Finnish national rallying, as you pointed out.

Riku Tahko is in again this year with the JCW WRC.

In other words - Julian Porter ‏@The_Rally_GuruIt's great to see @krismeeke getting his reward from @CitroenRacing for all his hard work as a test driver. He will drive a DS3 in Finland.
