The thing is PG didnt ever had so much chance to drive and test as Mr Latval ever did. Believe me!

I´ve been helping JML to recover his front in NORF when he´d crashed his Toyota some years ago and know very well how many chances he´s got compared to PG.

So let´s give PG a fair chance even if it´s not gonna be a much test drivin as JML and we´ll see a driver who is well at the level as the fastest in WRC. You should know that before you give your comments. Give PG a break and let´s see.

Diddn't mean that comment to be offensive :)
And to be fair, its not as if JML has never had a accident or two in testing :p As long as he keeps it to the testing and not in the actual rallies! :)

Red Bull got permission to organize a street show in Helsinki downtown on Sunday 24th July, prior to Rally Finland. Kimi Räikkönen and Sebastien Loeb will appear in DS3 WRCs.

Entries are coming in slowly. Prokop and three Minis were first, now also Petter. Actually Fabrizio de Sanctis were the first, for his 26th consecutive Rally Finland! You can see the list from here.

Also entries for the Lahti Historic Rally can be seen from here. The rumoured 037 is there.

There's no list on that link above.

Thank you very much. Now it works.

For those who are coming to Finland or just otherwise are interested, here is a time-lapse video from the rally's host city Jyväskylä: YouTube - ‪28 hours in Jyväskylä (28 tuntia Jyväskylässä)‬‏
There are even some NORF-banners at 2.04 and a Rally Meal-sign at 3.40 in the right side.
