I dont agree with Ucci too. Completely snow Janner Rallye is really beautiful, on the other hand fully tarmac rally is boring and very fast.

my pictures from Aigner, Neubauer, Baumschlager and Mayer testing!

...and YES Jänner Rallye is spectacular ALSO on Tarmac, but I would prefer Snow...but anyway, the drivers have to deal with it, after seen a few test sessions and sit beside Andi Aigner in Peugeot 207 S2000 i can say Tarmac in Jannuary IS very very difficult and spectacular, but also can be dangerous because of the high speeds!

I´m looking forward to an exiting season start in upper austria, wish everybody here a Happy New Year and hope to see some of you in Freistadt later this week ;)

@WRC1: nice pictures!

Some hints for non locals if going directly to Freistadt (service park, media center, qualifying stage) or to SS 3/6 from Linz: because of a motorway construction there´s heavy traffic south of Freistadt even without a rally. So expect to loose some time from Neumarkt to Center of Freistadt (about 20-30 min for 10 km). For going to SS 3/6 one could also go by Kefermarkt - Lasberg - St. Oswald bypassing Freistadt.

I wouldn't say that a fully Jänner Rallye on tarmac is completley boring. Some stages like Pregarten or Liebenau are really not perfect for a tarmac rally as the are too fast. But on the other hand you have really beautiful stages like Pierbach which is very twisty and is going up- and downhill all the time. Also Unterweissenbach or the Aisttal Stage are very beautiful.

According to the latest weather forecast some snow could be possible on Sunday.

Valda will not start :mad:

Bad news. I think it is the first time since 2003 that he will not start.

Yes, bad News. I´d rated him in Top Ten as in the last years.
