I am afraid it will be again shitty DMack Fiesta Cup.

Yes, he didnt mention any car in his newsstory, but new fiesta R2t in jwrc/dmack and probably the old R2 on home soil thru the winter.
Yes, i know that, i just didnt remember what the dmackfiestathing was called:)
To specify more, he said that he going to use his fiesta this winter, after that it wasnt ready yet, so hopefully it is something different than a fiesta.
Finally no Danneborg family in the start list of Sigdals Rally :confused:

Grondal in DS3 R5 leads over Brynhildsen Fiesta RRC, by 7,8 secs after SS2.
Frank Tore Larsen lost almost 3 minutes on stage 1. Flat tyre?
Anders Grřndal lost 39,7s on stage 3
Edit: Had a spin 1,5 km into the stage
What happened to Steve Rökland in SS4 ??? :(
Thats it unfortunately! Smacked a big rock on the inside of a corner on SS4. Bad start to the year, motivated for a big result in Latvia now!

So next week both Mads Östberg and Anders Gröndal in Hadeland Rally with DS3 R5s :D
http://www.rally-hadeland.no/
Yes, anders need to find a better setup on the ds3, he strugled to find a good setup in sigdal. It was quite good on hard snow, but it wasnt good at looser roads. He and mads probably finds a good setup before sweden here:)
Michelin or Pirelli for Östberg :confused:
A bit surprised Gröndal was faster than Östberg on SS1 Rally Hadeland :confused:
Looks like Grondal won the rally with 5 sec to Ostberg.;)
Several equal times between Mads and Anders :eek:
4 out of 6 equal ss times. Amazing ...
I dont find stage times on ewrc.why mads used an r5?he will not drive r5 on rally sweden,i suppose just to get the felling,no other reason.last year he competed again to a winter rally with his wrc and he used wrc tyres (so he lost to pontus cause he used national rally tyres)and i could understand that test as pre-sweden test, but this year's test is a bit strange.if he used same tyres with anders and had no problems with the car i think mads should go for deer hunting and leave rallying(ok i exaggerate a bit).remember what kris did with r5 on rally condroz.
Because that R5 is from Adapta Motorsport, they don't have a DS3 WRC and this entry is fully on him. Citroën didn't support him on this rally I guess.

Good debut with the #DS3 R5 on the snowy roads of #RallyHadeland. Road sweeping resulted in 2nd overall :-)

What tyres they have used?for national championsips or for wrc?
Still we dont know?????
Road sweeping?? His start number is 58.
Sweeping meaning here that cars 1-50 were mostly 2WD cars (and most of them RWD!) so its completely different lines when arriving to the stages with 4WD R5... Mads was 49th car on the road (check http://racemode.no/startliste.php?r=rhad15 )
But still, the result is very surprising for me also!
Interesting entrylist in Finnskog this coming week-end ;)

Why Victor Danneborg starts behind Miriam Aasli in Finnskog today saturday :confused:
On the long stages he could stay blocked behind her and lose time :mark:
Mads has good pace today. 31 secs ahead of Eyvind after two stages...
Mads had the new ds3wrc and wide 15" tyres, eyvind in a rrc with the narrow 16" tyres. The first two stages was perfect ice and smooth, so i actually think the wider tyres didnt was a handicap. Eyvind beat mads on the rerun, then it was loose outside the tracks.
Both was really happy and ready to do theire best in sweden. Both can win theire classes in sweden.
Danneborg had his first outing in the ds3, so its due to a-b-c driver system. But he learnt alot this weekend he said:)
What happened exactly to Olle-Christian Veiby in Finnskog :confused:
I've read "excluded for forbidden assistance" but it looks like he was stuck in snow and spectators helped him to be back on the road :confused:
He was pushing too much over flying finish, and got stuck in the corner after ff. It isnt allowed to get assistance in the controlzone, so he got excluded. He was 3. fastest of all in the last stage, so if he keep it together he will be a guy to watch for in the wrc3 in sweden! He is fast:)
