Frozen gravelroads are of course challenging, but if they are really frozen down to, say, 20-30 cm the chance of having "icy" gravel surface is big. And less hard for the tyres. But again tyres will suffer a lot anyway.

Craig Breen will be codriven by Scott Martin.
Well, he didn't do so bad last year with privately owned Fiesta WRC... On every SS (except first SSS) lost clearly under a sec per kilometre, on three stages even under 0,5 sec/km to the fastest driver. Shame that the engine blew in Sågen.Quote:
