[WRC] Rally Estonia 15-18 July 2021

Aava was a guest today on a rally podcast.

On 28th June they will know how much people they can allow on the stages, our Healthcare will make a decision then.

Said the first stage on Saturday will be very challenging and they predicted a lot can happen on that stage. Many rhytm changes on the stage with fast parts and also very technical parts, also some tarmac in the middle of the stage.

As i understood his favourite is the Sundays first stage called Neeruti, he said this is the type of technical stage that they have searched for the rally.

The sale of WRC Rally Estonia rally passes will start on Friday, June 4 at 10.00 (EET)

There is 16 different passes. Any tip what pass to choose? Nice spectating points?

Well we chose RP3 although I wanted RP10 which was sold out on the first day.

Theres good places in every packAge I would say.

All pretty much garbage. But chose nr 6

Lukyanuk with Fabia is cool.

- all tourist drivers missing

- very few local (and other baltic) drivers

- no private Fiesta WRC´s

Is that the final list? ( a bit early?)

Genuinely surprised by no Lappi. Though since his standings are high atm he doesn't need to "prove" anything now and in case he doesn't get a deal he can enter Finland.

EDIT: Or he already signed a deal. In that case it would have to be MSport cause Ogier likely hasn't decided on 2022 yet.

Lukyanuk with Fabia is even bigger surprise. He is not entered to Liepaja yet either? Does that mean he parted with Sainteloc for some reason or just that they are don't want to start in WRC? Probably the last option.

EDIT: Another nice catch is that Lykyanuk is WRC3, which means among others that he will start after all 10 WRC2s. That further improves his chances to win Rally2, which would be first time this year that a non WRC2 driver does.

Normally entries for WRC rally closes 5 weeks before rally...
so not early at all, late for my standards.
