For example Neuville in sweden will be tourist while in Monte he is a dark horse, same goes for Campana, who in sweden some R2 might be faster but in monte i think he will do better.

It is not always about numbers and names...try and see the big picture...or you are going to end up like those strange poeple who think posting news about Al rajihl and the rest of the tourist squad important.

Well... same could be said of Sweden:

more drivers that know snow/ice surface better...which potentially will make the competition better.

For example Henning in Monte will be tourist while in Sweden he is a dark horse, same goes for Østberg....

And, by the way, I have no problem if Al rajihl gets an post or two here :)

Trying to sound not to pompous: What did I say?
Anyway, this proves that when a german website (or any nationality) "states" anything about different drivers participation in rallies, or for that matter bowel movements or love life, its very seldom based on reliable sources or facts. Rallye-magazin.de is just like the others, a bunch of uninformed clowns qouting rumours or speculation.
@Vargåsen, I think you are correct about 2003, when something like 28 WRC`s competed. Tord Linnerud/Yours Truly finished the rally in 19th place in our Toyota Corolla WRC, in front of Jari Viita/T. Laine Ford Focus WRC, while first Gr. N car on the overall list was Kenneth Bäcklund (Mitsubishi) in 21st place. 2003 Swedish Rally was indeed a great event when it came to entries and competition!

Maybe not all of them...but I understand what you are saying!
I have been a journalist since I completed my university degree in journalism in 1979. ;-)

Good entry list but I think Norway 2007 and even Sweden 2007 was better
