Now there is rain all the weekend. Its probably going to be first proper wet rally of the season.
How to get the beginning of the las stage? Is it posible to park on the road side?
las stage? Do you mean the last stage? (= 22/05/2023 - SS17-19 Sardegna / Live TV - Wolf PWS). In that case you can download the PDF map for passholders which indicates the reserved parking spots https://rallyitaliasardegna.com/down...c3a21685269736Quote:

Still rain on the forecast for all week
Makes Pickems even harder to predict... just do it folks!
And there might be some fog, which is typical in these mountains
So the same conditions we had on Friday 2018 only instead of one day, all weekend? Hope the stages won’t get cancelled.
Lots of difference between weather websites. YR.no seems to be the most pessimistic about the weather for the rally (unless you love rain, then its optimistic ;-) ).
We'll see!
On Friday 2018 there was just overnight rain, it wasn't raining on Friday, am I right? And im quite worried about cancelling second passes of the stages because of mud. But like NielsH said, we gonna see!
italian forecast says moderate rain in the late afternoon in the mountain, around 17-20h. sun in the service park area.

Tempio Pausania stage shortened
What is the reason? Maybe too much rain in coming days?
Remember not to check the forecast for Olbia, there is more rain forecasted in the mountains where the stages are.Quote:

Tempio is just 9 km long :DQuote:

Wow, that will be crazy if it remains here! I saw some recce pictures from Solberg and it was completely dry, so it is probably just in places, but it is more tricky because of changing conditions.
Yep. Seems it’s in partsQuote:

Suspension upgrade gives Tanak renewed WRC hope in Sardinia
Ott Tanak says a suspension upgrade trialled in a pre-event test has “definitely improved” his World Rally Championship M-Sport Ford Puma ahead of this weekend’s Rally Sardinia.

Lets assume Ott was playing hide and seek during the shakedown.....( looks, though, others were not invited to the game and they went fast...😬)Quote:

Pickems closing time is 1800hrs CEST. Less than three hours...
Storm will maybe arrive to SS1
here we go, let's hope for a good one!
Tänak and Järveoja talked after the stage something about puncture at the end of the stage. Right rear but it’s his own fault jumping too sideways on that left hander where the right rear took quite a impact
And video proof of it https://twitter.com/alekslesk/status...C1kV5QC61vX5Xg
Oh no, why would even think about 1 spare..
Ok, rally-salves, here we go :)
tyro-choice is a bit.. "eeem, what?" but we'll figure it out soon I guess
