And because of the weather: already Jänner Rallye was crazy from this point of view. But Winter in whole middle/western/eastern Europe seems to be crazy this year.

That was why I suggested to ask organizers of former "Rally Norway WRC" to participate in ERC...or something in Russia (sorry baltic boys) In my opinion there is not enough space for such risks as winter rally nearby the seashore. This year the weather isn´t total disaster but it could be for next year. I would be fan of this Latvian rally if it would take place during summer.

I would say - close to it if grip will be ok. Here is average speeds in "Rally Kurzeme 2012" on gravel - LR? Stages from 2 to 5 in 2012 was on same roads as stages from 2 to 5 in "Liepāja-Ventspils".

Shakedown results online (for non-prority drivers) - LR?
