Rally Sweden 2017

So the starting order for Fridays leg should be something like:

Ogier
Latvala
Tänak
Sordo
Breen
Evans
Lefebvre
Neuville
Hänninen
followed by Paddon, Meeke, Ostberg, Solberg, Bertelli, Gorban (don't know the exact order for non finishers / non starters at Monte)

Under normal circumstances very good starting position for Neuville, Hänninen, Paddon, Meeke...

I just guess Meeke will be before Paddon.

Yes, i am doing premiere with my newbuild Volvo 940 this weekend. 18 months of work...

Btw, you? was mentioned and pictured in last number of Bilsport Rally & Racing in Sweden i think, was about you driving a Saab in some rally in USA i think, last event on world level with a old Saab.

940 sounds good. I make 50mm Bilstein suspension--much like Sellholm and am doing some now for a Swedish guy living in Canada, it will be good to have somebody here that knows how to drive in a good car..

And yeah that's me. That was WRC Olympus Rally 1986, last event for the Group B cars, last event for Ascona B--and there was one entered which stayed, and last event for Saab 96.... We DNF just past SS19 on day 3 and got to watch a great fight between Markuu Alen and Juha Kankunen...

Still have the car....10 years later I won one round of our US National Championship for 2wd cars...but with National spec motor, not the Group A motor I built for that.. And that photo was sent to me by old friend Ola Strömberg gamla Svensk mästare från Örebro, we're old friends...

So Superspecial Karlstad definitely needs some icy days to come:

Luckily Karlstad is way further south that any other stage (And I still don't get why they've kept it, they could've saved lots of transport and time by skipping the stage)

Because they make money selling tickets to make the rest of the event viable....

weather forecast next 10 days is more minus degrees and some snow in sunday. Hope good winterrally

Not looking very good around Torsby from next tuesday, lots of rain, Norway looks slightly better
