To have such stage is ok, to use it as a power stage is not. It would be different if let's say every second or third stage was asphalt one like on Cyprus.

"Sometimes, I don't understand this sport - we wonder why we stay hidden away behind the trees."
When reading things like this I got the growing feeling that this sport is just a pain in the butt for people pouring money into it.
The future doesn't look so bright when people are so eager to refuse the nature of this sport. Sometimes is so hard to be a rally fan.

Throw some chicanes on the tarmac stage and the FIA will be happy. Solution!

I can see why the FiA have vetoed the Power stage suggestion;it’s slightly odd to have a Tarmac Power stage on what is a ’Gravel’ event.
However, I can understand the organisers thinking/ reasoning.They’re trying to mix the event up, as it has become very ‘samey’ with the usual stages used year after year, just in a different order/ day.
I still think it’s a shame that the Epynt stages can’t be used…..
Once upon a time the first day was spent mainly on Tarmac through the stately home and circuit stages…..
Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???

No problem having this as a stage, just not the PS.
They should just have it at a different time as it's a great idea and would bring great publicity and rally to the people.

Almost all Finn's since Paavo Nurmi who are fast in their sport have been called "Flying", particularly the 1960's rally drivers, but I was actually thinking of "Flying Finnish" - the timing line at...
