And once again, brilliant result of Jonas Lindroos, 10th overall at Itäralli :cool:
Finnish rallying championship continues on Saturday with the first gravel event of the season. The event now is held in Riihimäki. Surrounding roads have been used for rallies numerous times in the championship, in local events and also some in Rally Finland in early 2010's the latest. Of course, the selling points for this event are Jari Huttunen and Takamoto Katsuta both in World Rally Cars. The R5 turnout is really poor, only seven crews will start, but otherwise the entry list is nice with over 160 cars. This event is a combined FRC and junior FRC event. (Note that Mini R4 does not start due to homologation delays.)

Teemu Asunmaa won the SM1 class championship! It went down to the wire, before the last super special he was only five seconds ahead of Juha Salo, who would have won if they had switched places.
Finnish championship calendar for 2020:
Snow
1) 16.-18.1. Arctic Lapland Rally, Rovaniemi, Rovaniemen UA
2) 7.-8.2. SM Ralli Mikkeli (RSJM), Mikkelin UA
3) 28.-29.2. Itäralli, Joensuu (RSJM), Joensuun UA
Gravel
4) 12.-13.6. SM O.K-Auto Ralli, Kouvola (RSJM), Kouvolan Seudun Autourheilijat
5) 4.-5.9. SM Ralli, Oulu (RSJM), Ni-Ra Oy
6) 25.-26.9. Pohjanmaa SM-Ralli, Seinäjoki (RSJM), Pohjanmaaralli ry
Some minor changes, like Mikkeli returning after one season break as planned and Kouvola back to gravel. Seinäjoki is pushed further in the calendar and serves now as the season final in late September. Biggest change is a gravel event in Oulu, one could say a newcomer, it's been a while since FRC event in Oulu.
On regulations, which are still undecided, but R4 Kit should be there allowed for points (probably SM2?). Also, they are planning to ditch "old Civics class" (2000cc) and introduce V1600 class instead with FRC value. That is a class for almost road cars with minor changes, very much suitable for drivers in the beginning of their careers, affordable.

I'm here already few days, lovely weather, perfect road conditions.
Hej guys I post this on the WRC side but maybe it work better here since its aa question about specifically Finnish event, maybe somebody really knows what the correct answwer is...
Sure its rallyiprint, that much i can read and no kau-drajver is a big hint, but some poor innocent Yanks are asking what the big signs with the numbers are.....so what are they?Quote:
Bar talk....Hej alla ni galna Finska ralli-dårar:.
Can some of you guys look at this short little clip of some mad-man named Pasi Erikilä in a bad-ass Toyota in a rallisprint and tell me what the big signs are with numbers he passes with such grace and beauty??
I'm guessing interval time or splits or something Here's the vid

Rally sprint track is considered as a track and those with numbers are marshalling points with flags. Finnish rally sprints are run with 30 second intervals, so there must be some efficient way to get the attention of the driver had a driver before gone off or otherwise stopped.Quote:

We forgot to remove engine covers from the front so car started to overheat and we had to stop on stage to remove them.

We finish 5th O/A of @SMVaakunaRalli
& it’s not really where we wanted to be. But sometimes it’s like that & we have to accept it. We are confused about the result. We need to try to find out why we were not competitive by checking the data from the stages and the car carefully.
