    Info on Oliver Solberg crash from DF...

    His car bottomed out and sent him wide into a bank, flipping his car over on its nose and forcing him to retire.

    Speed wise, Fourmaux adapted very well to the Hyundai. He needs consistency now

    This stage (Myhinpää) has no corners, said Kalle at finish.

    I remember 2015, I brought an old friend of mine to Finland. He also was a rallyguy and we have had a lot of fun during the years since my drivers license age. That is early 70´s.

    On Wednesday before rally we did recce on Myhinpää, which should be driven opposite way than this year. Driving out on the stage in cruising mode, his eyes was kind of standing out. He couldn´t believe this was a stage! The road was (is) so wide, maybe like 9-11 meters in some places. It´s like national tarmac ordinary traffic roads in Sweden. But I told him, "yes, this IS the stage".

    So in a way one should understand Kalle, when he says there´s no corners.

    We had a great rally as spectators, and he was very impressed. We also had access to Ford team, and met many drivers personally that time.

    My friend died this winter in cancer, in age of 75.
