    he is keeping the trend which used at Hyundai before the rallies,excuses that he has to run 3 years at Wales.
    Too much annoying,he wants to have an excuse if he will not be fast.

    That's just your interpretation of a fact he is stating. He's said nothing but positive things about being back on the Wales stages that he loves.

    He says it because it's TRUE... most WRC rallies are still new to him and need learning.

    And regarding the Cambrian Rally, on the contrary, he's actually reminding people that he HAS been to Wales before and even done two of the stages.

    O Solberg:
    'Great fun on the @CambrianRally shakedown today - ride onboard from my perspective through the stage and see why I love these roads so much !'

    Hardly looking for excuses if he's not fast.

    Anyone know where the shakedown stage was? I gather that the Clocaenog stage of the actual rally is Clocaenog East rather than -Mid. East was often a popular choice for the shakedown stage on Rally GB though

    The middle hasn't been used much for years due to the windfarm that went in there. Some of the tracks are now really wide and well maintained, while some of the more characterful bits and link roads previously used for rallying appear to be little used or somewhat abandoned by forestry operations.

    I wondered whether that shakedown stage was somewhere west of Penmachno, but I'm not that familiar the area. It look's more Mid Wales-ish to me though.

    Shakedown was at Dolwyddelan.
    The Clocaenog stage is using vast majority that was the Rally GB shakedown stage.

    I’m still annoyed that it’s one of the few stages I’ve not done competitively as spectators walking out down the road caused it to be cancelled for us in 2016
    If the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off!
