no jokes with Adamo.

I agree with him that the attitude that seemed to be there in the past about Finland is just not good enough. The can't go to Finland every year and just say "nah we won't be competitive here" and give up, like they did before. Finland here, tarmac rounds there and in the end you don't win any championship.

That said I doubt the upgrades they introduced can close a gap so big as they had in recent years.

We might come to service after shakedown. Which team are you working with?

we are definitely coming to the service park after shakedown and thenwe are going to eat in Jyväskylä in the famous Buffa

Shame that Evans and Paddon will not be there. Was it not possible to do a last minute change for Paddon to drive instead of Greensmith?

Anyway, good that the summer break is over, look forward to a nice battle and hope we get actions till the last kilometres! Let's see if Jarmo Lethinen can make it 2 podiums in a row, that would be quite a come back!

Have fun rally friends.

If Greensmith would be driving without bringing any budget, probably. But still it would be sad to miss the event for someone else's mistake...

Talk about rubbing it in the face of other teams:

Rally Radio special warned last night that it is drier than ever so absolutely no fires or barbecueing in the forest, and if possible, quit smoking for the weekend. Even though now it's colder, it's still drier than last year. It has rained less in Jyväskylä during the summer than ever while it has been measured.

Servicepark is open today from 16PM to 20PM for FREE, no need to wait after shakedown...

Me and RallyPer will attend, probably every day.

I live in that area.

See you guys at the stages. Have a safe rally everyone.

Why Rhys Yates isnt here:
Gutted not to be starting @RallyFinland this week. Time just beat us in getting the car fixed after a heavy @ypresrally crash. Back for Rallye Deutschland ! https://t.co/Pp492EK4LR
