And if they indeed snooth and water the stages and there is constant ice, no problem.

It is too late to cancel the rally... Originally Posted by tommeke_B

The only stage I still see being cancelled at this point is Torsby 2... Anyway we'll see, tomorrow I'm flying to Sweden, hoping for some special WRC action.

Ogier wants to cancell the rally, because usually we is not so good under umpredictable conditions. For him the unkonwn is a strange thing, and this swedish rally as a lot of unknown forward.
Three gears are enough!

There are no gravel crews here.... But I agree with Your point, this is just rally, not circuit racing... Originally Posted by COD

Ah, thank you. I thought they had more to go over. I wish they were better at announcing those. Anyway, I have the race calculated. It will be posted to night, Central time. After that I will...
