This is making me so very jealous! Stages look spot on for spectacular spectating.
Hi there,
I have been too busy again. I am running one big GIS project related to inundation/flooding areas around rivers and lakes, and I have to finish it soon. But I took some time yesterday to take a look on weather.
There should be snowfall tonight on many stages of the rally and most probably it will be the last before and during the rally.
Shakedow should be with some clouds, +2..+4 degrees and it is likely that there is no snow left by that time, maybe some icy patches.
SS1 and 2 should both have a few minus degrees SS2 should have at least 3-4 degrees below zero. It will be warm during the day (+3..+4), so, black ice is real possibility and snow dragged on the road by first cars is also possibility.
Fridady:
Morning stages will be probably almost key stages. Some snow is expected on those stages on Wednesday (so, after recce) and I do not expect the temperature to rise much above zero there, so it will be tricky. Ss3, 5, 6 and 8 should be all between -1.. and -5 degrees. Only the longest stage SS 4 and 7 is in lower elevation and should be mostly on plus side on both runs.
Saturday:
Morning, longest stage (SS9) should run between -2..-4 degrees, a bit cloudy. SS10 also -3.. -5 degrees, a bit cloudy
Ss11 is in the middle of the day, a bit cloudy and temperature between +2..+4, Ss12, cloudy and 0..+2 degrees
SS13 It should be + degrees on that stage for most of the time, looks like heat wave is arriving :)
I do not expect any snow during the whole week on saturday stages, so, its should be as it is with some additional melting during the days but plenty of roadisde snow and ice on the road should not dissapear.
Sunday:
It will be hot day, no snow. Even on Turini I expect up to +5 degrees, so, maybe even some running water on the stages because of melting snow;)
On the last stage the temperatiure might rise up to +10 degrees:)
In overall, I do not expect any major snofall, but this is mountains;) Another factor is fog. It is expected to be very calm weather, so fog is real possibility and fog with minus degrees is very slippy ;) So, lest see:)
Gröndal was already taking first win in last weekend with new R5

The old i20 looks a lot better in the new colours. Also interesting to see they're running 2 different wheelcolours.
Bertelli already won! Worst design ever on a rally car!
Isn't it sad to see his super ugly liveries considering who his mother is? Or are they so ugly in purpose?
I donīt think this "rainbow" P208 is that ugly. It is of course different, but it is exciting (it catches your eyes) and for sure easy to recognize and easy to remember. So why not? :)
See you tomorrow at Shakedown :)

Pretty cool, unfortunately it's night and you won't see much of the canyon ;)
Hyunday new livery looks horrible. In press release shots it was OK, but that ugly as he'll.
He should've done this M-Sport style livery:

I think they will use different colors of rims for shakedown as some kind of promo and from first SS they will use same color (most probably white ones). ...2 regular stages at most and then they will change it because they will be obliged to do so. It is my tip.

Ups :)
And that's another reminder why you should never drive a stage in opposite direction during recce. I don't understand how people even think about it, on snow/ice on such narrow roads full of blind corners...
When is shake start?
found it: 16.00
Anybody have info about spy-crew? I heard about Protasov for Kubica
