I will guess. You never lived in a communist state so thats why you know "so well" what does it mean :/Quote:

Let's not get side tracked. This is a racing forum and I just expressed my opinion on the matter.
These are really stupid measures .... that have nothing to do with the real world ... I have a feeling that politics are fuc#** people in the head....shame.Quote:

Seems a bit over the top, presumably they were/are expecting a lot of people to try and get out to watch.Quote:

Simply if there is a requirement to run the rally with no spectators (from the state officials for example) it has to be somehow forced into effect, otherwise the organizer may have serious troubles.Quote:

All of the winter season rallies in Finland have been no spectators events, some with heavier measures, some less. No stages have been cancelled even if there has been spectators, but it for sure kills the pleasure to be hiding out and knowing you are doing something you're now allowed to. Problem is the feeling of injustice. Rallies, in the forests, easy to social distance, but other outdoors sports can continue because they are no pre-arranged public affairs. We see pictures of 50 people, 100 people queing for ski lift or on a ice skating rink - that's OK, but groups 1-5 rally spectators here and there scattered across kilometres long stages is not ok. That's the feeling of injustice we get.
