Saturday night, Sunday day or night, Monday - all a lot more than usual.

Of course, but Pluto's post is more possible to believe, that it is the Evo 9.

Its because there is national winter vacation in the school in Norway and Sweden that week and the week after, depends on where you live in the country.

We are flying into Stockholm. I know it’s around 1 hour extra drive but flight was a lot cheaper and also car rental worked out cheaper from there.

Maybe also Landvetter Gothenburg is alternative? Have no idea myself, but don´t think ARN is bad either.

In terms of distance Gothenburg is similar to Stockholm ARN indeed. Also check Stockholm Bromma, it's a little closer, small airport, easy to arrive and leave. I flew to Bromma 3 times. Also checking Stockholm Nykoping (lots of flights with Ryanair) can be interesting. This year we're flying to Oslo Gardermoen, which is the closest to the rally now. Before booking it's interesting not only to compare the costs of the flights themselves, but also check the price of the rental cars. I don't know why, but the prices of rental cars can differ a lot from time to time and from airport to airport.

I think Evo IX has still valid homologation.

It looks like it doesn't. At least it's not in the list on FIA website: https://www.fia.com/file/65105/downl...token=P01P9A00 (only Evo X inside).

EDIT (after private chat with PLuto): It's still permited in FIA events under exception.

I know that this year is last one for IX evo's at FIA championships
