Today the entries Close for Rally Sweden 2016.
A pity that the list of received entries on the Website is not as accurate as in the last years. We have to wait for more updates as there was no changes since quite some days now.

New shakedown needed for Rally Sweden. Looks like organisers forgot to ask first before announcing the new shakedown near Karlstad.

I've been checking this daily and it's not been updated particularly well. Hoping for a nice entrylist when it does arrive with a WRC surprise or two. Hanninen maybe? I guess it's got to the point where even Henning would be a surprise - but that's more a case of if he makes the start.Quote:

Did someone tell Østberg there's no midday service...? ;) (Ref, Finland)
Hopefully they will change back, next year because this kind of drew the joy out of going there a bit with all the strange changes.
What has changed from specator point of view with really importance? Nothing - moving from Hagfors to Karlstad was long overdue.Quote:

A bit crazy going 3 days with no midday service, hopefully we won't loose too many cars.Quote:

It is always nice going to the end of day service to get the interviews and meet some friends and see the drivers. I don't think many of the ones who actually follow the rally will bother to go all the way down to Karlstad for that. Sweden is not an event that lacks in number of spectators so i don't see why Hagfors is a problem.
And now the drivers have to do the long road section in the middle of the night in rally cars instead of comfy cars or busses as well.
Yes, but also those lots and lots of people who always had their accomodation in Karlstad, as there was way too less hotels around Hagfors are happy of driving just 10 minutes instead of 50 minutes to old shakedown. So its just a matter of perspective.Quote:

Rally Sweden has no spectator problem, but it never can be a bad thing to offer the possibilty to have more and more people able to come and see the service etc. in a bigger city like Karlstad.
