It depends on where you live. I should absolutely buy the Magazine on the website. You might get some time at home reading and planning.Quote:

Thanks Rallyper.
I'm coming from the UK so not sure if I've got time to order online. So if I understand correctly, I need tickets to access the SS, correct?
In the UK the wrc is a ticket event but I generally go to Monte, Portugal or Spain all of which are free to spectate.
Yes, tickets to access is needed. Can be bought on special servicestations (I guess OKQ8). Magazine i published tomorrow so I´ll be back with more information asap.
Thanks again Rallyper. Tickets booked!
Plenty snow for the rally... :)

If you plan to go to Sweden, take a look at that: https://app.box.com/s/zfy8lb3mzwl3tcuz2hayndduj5i0qnkf
A very smart thing appeared to me when I looked in the RS Magzine today.
VW have placed fan zones on certain stages where you can join by showing your VW car-key. Free soup bread, cofee and parking (for first 50 arriving). Very good initiative!
Good idea , just need to make sure your hire car is a VW then.....Quote:

Great! Really looking forward to going to Sweden for the 2nd time. Arriving on thursday so no shakedown for me. Anyone who has tips for some nice places on the stages? They are always welcome.. ;) For Torsby I heard the last section before the finish is nice. For Vargasen I'll try to find some spots on the part before Colin's Crest. Anyone who knows if the lake will be open for cars again, like a few years ago?
What a star, thanks for the link ruesluporp.Quote:

Tomi Tuominen @T_Tuominen 24m24 minutes ago No woman, no cry - no money, no car. No Rally Sweden for us. But at least my father just won historic class last weekend in Finland. #rally
sad :(
And don't listen fake twitter account of Protasov. They change a car and team for Rally Sweden, Fiesta WRC by M-Sport. FIA approved car and team change yesterday
Juho Hänninen wont start :( in Sweden. Financial problems
Here we are again... Money rules.Quote:

So what drivers are we having in todays WRC which didn´t make failures at the start of their careers? (And I mean in this case their careers in WRC cars). JH has proven a lot to me in the past, but his tests in WRC car isn´t that many, are they?
Juho is waaaaay past the start of his career... by the looks of things he is very near the end.
meeke had two chances (finland and australia )he scewed both of them and the next year was official driver.ostberg became official driver without having shown something spesial.i want to say that juho could also take a seat for a full year.of course i admit that kris despite his accidents was bloody fast.also the no one sordo took a seat in citroen and they were consisting on him without a reason.Quote:

Ostberg bought his chances... none gave him anything... he probably pays to drive a citroen as well.Quote:

Juho is nothing... time to go to his home by the fireplace and read stories about wasted years to his grandchildren.
I said money rules. Not anything about quality of driver. So read more closely next time, baby.Quote:

As we've seen, age isn't really a factor in rallying. Considering that Meeke is two years olderQuote:

Exactly. He should have showed he is at least a little better than Sordo. But his performance was a total tragedy. WRC is not like IRC with Loix and Kopecky.Quote:

Juho is way faster than over 50% of current WRC drivers.
but if you don´t pay, you don´t drive!
