Välimäki - Taguchi will be top2 in this order. And it will be surprise if Taguchi can challenge Välimäki through the rally and not only on some stages.

Well, IIRC, he led most of the 2005 edition until damaging his radiator on a water crossing, middle of Leg 2. His times were generally quicker than Jussi's, too (only at this event, however!).

First running of the Hippodrome SSS is completed and 'Fast' Jussi is just that, topping the leader board!
Though Katsu has posted an identical time for the 3km sprint around the horsetrack.
In fact, the MRF Team currently fill the first three places with young Indian driver, Gaurev Gill posting a pretty impressive time only 0.3 sec
slower, later equalled by Yanagisawa.
Second run should be starting shortly.
