Super license seems like an pointless FIA money-making exercise. We shouldn't be putting up any more barriers for people to get into top machinery. There are already more than enough.Quote:

i agree with super licence but it should be a bit more than paying an amount to the FIA like it is done with all the "chicks with D%%%s" in F1.
Apparently Swedish rally Service park will be moved for the 2016 rally. From Hagfors to Karlstad. Imo someone really had a brain freeze when
that decision was made. :arrows:http://www.vf.se/nyheter/hagfors/ser...s-fran-hagfors
FIA have demanded this since there are not enough hotel rooms (and likely also not enough party party) in Hagfors.
If Swedish rally wouldn't have complied the rally would have been dropped.
The new service area will be at the outer harbour in Karlstad. Somewhere in this area: https://www.google.com/maps/@59.3677.../data=!3m1!1e3
Far away from the stages unless they plan on moving the stages southwards as well.

Super licenses, moving Sweden south, dropping Corsica for China...... what's going on here?
Moving Sweden service further south seems ridiculous, but no more so than some of the other unnecessarily massive commutes that are being made these days I guess.
It will not be the first time the Service park will be located in Karlstad. As already most of the staff / teams had to be located in Karlstad because of the lack of accomodation further north and also overnight-halts have been in Karlstad before its not that big deal.
Stages will be run in same area with tyre Fitting zone in hagfors on Saturday.
Interesting will be where the shakedown will take place, probably it has to be moved too.

EDIT: hari's link answers a lot of questions.
It will be interesting to see what they come up with. I went this year and loved it but wasn't overly impressed by the service park
To be honest Rally Sweden isnīt the rally to visit both SP and stages and thinking you could come along with that in an easy way. RS is not like NORF, where everything is smoth. Itīs also winter against summer. The choice which event to visit is easy.
But coming to RS best way to attend is to stay in the Hagfors area and just visit stages. Skip Karlstad!
