[WRC] FORUM8 Rally Japan 2023

So now, almost 24 hours before the start of stage 2, there is about 30mm of rain on Friday morning's forecast. Can't wait!

I wonder, which starting position will be the best.. Maybe going first isn't advantage, because of cleaning leaves out of the road? Or Am I wrong? I don't really remember how much cutting was going on last year, but I think that basically there is NOT a lot of cuts on Friday? Can someone tell us more about it?

Rain doesnt help the competition on tarmac.
