Here is some footage from stage 4. That went well, but have to admit that the onboard footage isn't as entertaining as Salo's. Those are always nice to watch ;)

Again from Salo's FB, a picture by Seppo Salminen. That's what they mean when saying "flying sideways in the air". :-)

Seems that we were both wrong ;) A good fight in the sm3 class. Shame about the end results.

In the sm2 class Karttunen put on a good show. He may have had better traction in places, but to put it mildly his clio isn't exactly "latest spec". I had a chance to watch his driving and once to sit in the co-drivers seat in the akk training. I think he might have the smoothest driving style I have ever seen. And nowadays everyone tries to drive smoothly, but that's the main thing which stuck into my memory.

It hasn't been mentioned here, but on SS6 - prior to the blockage - Joonas Lindroos went off and spent some minutes in the ditch. It really wasn't his weekend.

You´re right. Joonas and C2 could be seen from the Kalle Pinomäki´s incar from the SS6 @1:00 min. In the end of the video is also seen the Mitsu which caused the jam. Video ends to Kalle´s question to co-driver "What shall we do now?"

That place...

I'll have to link one more onboard from Mikkeli, this time it's Juho Annala (who had that massive jump crash/roll last year in Kouvola ending his season there because of an injury and wrecked car) on SS5, some nice driving with C2... :) Here lost only 4,2 secs to fastest R2 (Kinnunen 208).

Entries for next FRC event in Joensuu (March 9th) are here in pdf.

Ketomaa in Impreza R4 this time. Otherwise no big surpises. Lindroos is in. Also Inessa has entered...
