Antti when your route preview will be available?

I’m so excited already. This two and half weeks seems so long waiting

I am also excited! I will spend 3 days in front of my TV watching All live and scheduling my next visit to a WRC rally. 2017 was Germany, 2018 Turkey, 2019?

The battle is on!

Today. Just final proofreading needed

Really looking forward to this event now. Had a look over the schedule at the weekend planning where to spectate.

Entry list should be out this week?

Here we go.

- Most gravel stages are reversed with some route updates and thus renamed
- The Barcelona super special is back on Thursday
- The tarmac stages are almost completely the same as last year

Here we go.

- Most gravel stages are reversed with some route updates and thus renamed
- Also the stage order has been reversed, so "Terra Alta" is now the first stage
- The Barcelona super special is back on Thursday
- The tarmac stages are almost completely the same as last year

Terra Alta stage is reversed this year and the name of the stage is La Fatarella( the village where the start is). Otherwise the order of the gravel stages is the same and this one is 3-rd and 6-th for the day.

hmm, maybe it changed between RG1 and RG2? Thanks for noticing, I need to fix that.

EDIT: Yes, checked an older itinerary version and indeed the original plan was to start with La Fatarella aka Terra Alta. It's common problem for my blog that often RG2 and/or final itinerary / road book is released just weeks before the rally, when my route preview should already be published. Germany also changed over something in the Sunday stages.

Ostberg with Citroen r5 I see in Twitter

Doesn’t look like this is happening now. Recce only for Ostberg.

Like expected, Ken Block debuts in a Fiesta WRC.

Also expected was to see Kopecky on WRC2. Good also for Kalle Rovanperä to get more experience. Veiby and Lefebvre on Citroen. Also, Henning again with Skoda.

Wow. Petter vs. Henning once again. It will be great fight. Looking forward to see that. Plus looking forward to see how fast N5 cars are in comparison with R5 ;-)
