Program wanted!!!

Is there anyone here who has bought the official program, who would be kind enough the scan the pages with the stagemaps, spectator points and GPS coordinates.

If so please get in touch by PM or e-mail: jtl (at) rallyfotografen.dk

Sadly it seems that Rally Sweden will not be releasing a program for sale online.

The car is fast, fun and great to drive. I think it's faster than C4 WRC. I'm glad for every minute in the car. The day is almost over and we have done a lot things. We will definitely go up into the night, "said Petter Solberg.

Petter knows nothing compared to N.O.T. :D

N.O.T

we can surely believe a guy who just says things for his sponsors to stay loyal....so from the 1 million euros gearbox to a faster car than the C4...Greeks are known to be yes men to everything, its within their mentality but i expect more from people from developed countries...maybe i ask too much.

short video of petter testing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ougSc...layer_embedded

the sound is amazing, especially when he hits the rev´limiter.

@ΝΟΤ
it is just a link from what Petter said about his first drive with ds3 wrc.You haven t got to say yes or NOT.
@cali
that Petter said that is already faster is a bit difficult at this moment.Don t believe everything you read.He has to be ''good'' at citroen racing with a whole year of co-operation with them.

so is any ss in Sweden this year exactly same with previous years to compare?

2-FORD ABU DHABI WORLD RALLY TEAM
3-M-SPORT STOBART FORD WRT

Am I right ?

Yes, Vargåsen, first stage on friday morning is exactly the same since 2007.

Times 2010: 1st run - Mikko Hirvonen 13.18,4
2nd run - Jari-Matti Latvala 13.06,4

Times 2008: 1st run - Sebastien Loeb 13.49
2nd run - Mikko Hirvonen 13.32

Time 2007 1st run - Sebastien Loeb - 13.57
2nd run - Marcus Grönholm - 13.17,9

Difficult to compare from year to year, since surface, snow banks etc are not the same, but we will get an indication friday morning at least

like someone wrote here before that on certain conditions during testing new machinery is even a bit faster than the old 2.0L cars. Ofcourse this could be false as well but certainly those new cars are close enough to oled WRCars.

Some of the stages are the same, but road conditions and weather may affect times a lot, still we can have some clue after Sweden.

If I have to choose between you or Petter, then with all due respect ..... it's very easy decision :D

We were in 2010 on Varmulsassen stage and that are some good corners and jump before the finish line.

And also a good place for Sagen or Rammen??

Last year I was in the last hairpin of Sagen, but there is another access into the stage??

And also we were in Rammen, on a large hairpins upping on a hill. Somebody, know another interest access¿?

Best regards!

How are the road conditions over there at stages? Compared to last year and 2008 are there any similarities? Hopefully there is enough snow and ice roads!

Thanks a lot Harrik!! I don´t understand why they go out in the second stage?? There was totally out, when the snow disappear after the 1st pass?

Also I have seen in your photos a jump in the end of Lesjofors stage. It´s easy to access for the end, and has a good visibility??

Best regards!

The jump is quite small. Access is pretty good - just a little (about 1.5 km???) uphill climbing from alpine ski track where the parking was (at lesat in 2008).
Visibility - excellent.
