Elfyn Evans recovery is going well. This week a gentle easing back into the driving seat.
A brand new Ford Fiesta WRC is being built for his return to Wales Rally GB:

It's chassis #11
The Elsi stage route is now updated on rally-maps. The Start is the same as FF last year and vice versa, but midway through the stage there's a detour onto roads used before in Cambrian Rally. Also, the triangle junction chicane is now removed.

Colwyn Bay also has an extra chicane and the parking lot donut is used both ways.
Slate Mountain sadly shortened.
Hi everyone, this year for the first time I will be present in Wales ... I wanted to ask you for indications on which ps to attend Friday and if it is possible to reach the parking lots indicated by the guide or you can reach the ps also from other road intersections
thanks Ivan

We're switching to a Hyundai i20 R5 for @WalesRallyGB 2019. A few weeks ago in Mid Wales, I tried the car out for the first time. Here's a short video from the test...

Indeed! I wonder whether he felt under appreciated by M-Sport? Maybe not though as he's still been retweeting M-Sport Fiesta stuff on Twitter recently. Quite a move to make, considering he stands a good chance of winning the BRC title this weekend in the old Fiesta... I've seen it said on Twitter that Hyundai had a sale on! I'm not sure if that's the truth or a joke, but the mass switch of the British rallying 'establishment' to Hyundai has got to be down to something of note.Quote:

One hell of an R5-lineup, fun to follow Cave and Edwards on home turf against elite R5-drivers.
Hyundai are putting a massive effort into sales, they want a piece of Msports market. Their car is'nt perfect yet, but their getting there........
And three women drivers.Quote:

But now we need to figure out if they're from the same family, such as the three Solbergs and Tidemand
He's so far down the start list I missed that !Quote:

The 3 Mc Hales from Ireland Have done a couple of WRC rounds in the past in 3 world cars, father and 2 sons.
Another quirk of the entry list! Has there ever been more drivers entered in wrc 2 that has driven a wrc car on a wrc event?
I count 9....
Well if you count all R5 cars, not just WRC2 cars...Quote:

Hey!
About to travel for the event!
Where would you recommend us to get accommodation? :)
Nobre and BolandQuote:

4 x Solberg if we include Pontus fully in the family. Only one missing is Oscar, but still quite impressive!
Who wins the R5 family competition?
it seems that users read but are not willing to respond and are only interested at the entry list...Quote:

Do you want to stay in the same place for the whole event, or somewhere different each night?Quote:

Otherwise, a B&B might work for you.
Like I said, just pick somewhere central and get stuck in.
Or maybe even pick a different hostel in a different town, closer to each day of action.
If you pm me your email address, I’m putting together a stage-to-stage distance and time planner so I can get to as many stages as possible each day. I’d be happy to share it.
I’ve also got a couple of fast spots in mind I can direct you to, if you haven’t got a plan already.
Hope you have a great rally pal.
It depends on what you want. If you aren't fussy and a self-catering hostel will suffice, there are several around Machynlleth, Dolgellau and Bala which are close to pretty much all the stages. If you want a nice comfy chain hotel with B&B and plenty of restaurants and fast-food outlets close by, then you'll have to go out a little further from the stages to larger towns like Oswestry, Chester and Llandudno.Quote:

Route preview. Quite much a mix from the past three years. Friday has more technical and rough roads, less familiar to the drivers, Saturday has wider and more fast-flowing Mid-Welsh classics, Sunday is pretty much familiar from the recent years with one run of Great Orme. Only Penmachno has a public road section whereas last year four stages had them. Friday two last stages are driven in the dark. A super special for every day.
I like these roads very much!

i dont like at all that there isnt any service on Saturday...
imagine if one of the title contenders car hits some trouble (not caused by the driver) and he has to drive with that car all day long
