The Saturday stages are the most troublesome...this is Hagfors's last corner.

Agree that Friday & Sunday stages look like will be ok. Issue being Saturday stages but should hopefully still be enough kms to keep the rally running.

Back in 2000 it seems like they drove in conditions that were far from ideal as well... Maybe taking the risk to destroy the roads is the most interesting option at this point. Could be better than refunding spectators, entrants, disappointed sponsors etc, and putting an end to Rally Sweden...

Looks like at the end of the next week the weathers gonna be very warm again.

Have anyone got their rally passes yet?
Usually they ship them out in January, except 3 - 4 years ago, when they did it one week before the rally.

So arrival probably next week.

I can see both sides of it. On one side I agree with what you say that sponsors/TV-companies, teams, specators can't be let down and etc. However if you look upon it from the other side, if the roads gets too damaged
the likely hood of being allowed to used those roads next year will become slimmer (even if the rally pays for restoration of the roads). That said I really don't see them cancelling. Step 1 is to cancel the stages that are in
the worst condition and then if needed and if possible a stage could be rerun once on another day just to get the necessary KM. Step 2 would be to cancel the historic class either completely or on some stages.
