Does Tidemand still do the Rally Finland recce, even if he does not do the rally? (Did Tidemand do a Finland skoda r5 testing session - I'm confused by the facebook skoda finalnd testing video)
I think he did a test yes. Quite surprising not to see at least Nordgren on his home event.
I wouldn’t spend a penny on a tarmac WRC rally either if i was him. The Puma is relatively weaker on tarmac, he’s not got much experience and he will have road position disadvantage as well. Better...
Thanks for the info, PLuto.
So it seems Sesks is looking to progress in WRC via good gravel results giving him a high profile, rather than showing he's an all-round package (tarmac & gravel).

I like Martins and having him in the WRC again. He's a great character and good on fast gravel. His sponsor money is welcome for M-Sport too.
But to be honest he would've been better to do a WRC2...
The WRC site says he'll also do selected ERC and National rallies. Maybe he should do tarmac ones to get experience instead of proving what we already know, that he's fast on gravel.
