WRC Rally Sweden 2020

[mknight]

So which is it? Definitely going ahead or decision later?

Nothing is definite until the first car start driving...or at least until Wednesday before the rally.

If Hof-Finnskog looks like that in 2.5 weeks it won't run, ruts like that which froze was what made Lesjöfors not run in 2016

The swedish guy who posted it said it was only a short distance that looks like that. But indeed they need to level it with a tractor before it freezes... or hope for 15cm of snow.

Can the organisers get the more water trucks (than in 2016) out at the end of the recce, to put some ice on all the roads or is it more likely stages be cancelled like in 2016?

Currently the problem is not with water, but with temperature.

To Norwegian guys: if rally is cancelled at the last moment, what to do in Norway. I am staying in Sweden but been there too many times. Time to explore Norway. 90 km to Oslo from hotel.

"Closest" to the border and should have snow is Røros, northern lights is sometimes visible there, Trysil for downhill skiing or Lillehammer and try the bobsleigh, I've only tried in summer and 3G's was enough for me, 5G's in winter I think!

According to this the decision is made next week

Tyre quotes could be increased

And finally my route preview, with some photos from the route gathered together

Yeah, I`m too old for 5G - s
Was looking for more cultural events.
But thanks anyway.

Some 10 cm wet snow coming this Wednesday in Torsby area. After that several minusdegrees at nights as long as forecast stretches. Will make it possible to get a proper ice or frozen gravel/ice surface. Maybe not much of snowbanks...
