This is not Acropolis. This is too soft and too short to have this name. I drove through the whole Pavliani stage, which used to be a tough stage. The organizers have put heavy machinery in it and now it is a much softer stage than almost all stages in Sardinia. It is not even an average stage anymore, it is rather soft. They are doing the same in Tarzan. Tarzan used to be the toughest stage outside Kenya. They work on it trying to make it like Finland. This is ridiculous.

Yeah, OK. Just don’t watch it and let us enjoy it.

It is not a matter of watching Seb, Ott and the other guys. Of course they are there to watch on whatever road they drive. The matter is that this is NOT Acropolis. It does not have the character. All stages have been re-surfaced by road-constructors.

P.S. Last weekend there was a national rally using two of the Acropolis stages. Believe me, it was softer than most Greek sprints. Of course, this is very good for a national rally. National rallies must be soft. But to have the name Acropolis, no. It is not Acropolis.

I know, I was in Fthiotidos rally. I watched Pavliani 1 & 2. So we must have met in Pavliani square for coffee or souvlaki! I still saw big rocks surfacing after the first cars. 14 cars retired!

What I am trying to say is that sometimes we must get rid of nostalgia and memories and go on.

Come one, we lost Acropolis Rally for 8 years and now we have it again! We have new people working on this, we have full government’s backing, new big sponsors. We are going to enjoy these wonderful cars for the last time not only in SS but under Acropolis monument as well. We had none of these the previous years.People are working for the rally and promote it like never before. Let’s be happy and enjoy it!

That´s right attitude!

People should be happy to get WRC in their country or near by.

Acropolis is not only about roughness. It's about people, landscapes, morning ice frappe and souvlaki! Can't get wait.

Exactly but frappe has been replaced by freddo espresso! Should you visit us for Acropolis Rally, you will see everyone caring one! Try it!

The next spectacle sacrificed on this society's altar of "safety" and "comfort", all justified with the same old wishy-washy sentence: "We must move on". No, we do not "have to" move on. Time is not a person who votes on things. Time does not set the rules. People do. We can choose to keep things we consider valuable. The old "wisdom" that things "must" change is a myth. Why change something that isn't broken? And why is it always replaced with something inferior? Why is the trend in rallying for shorter and shorter rallies, shorter stages, softer stages, slower cars, etc? Who wants this? Ask around among the fans, and tell me there is widespread support for these trends. There isn't.

Who wants this? .

Manufacturers do.
