Lappi was testing the JanPro Fiesta today. Turbo broke after one run and they cannot get a replacement for tomorrow so no Jämsän Äijät ralli tomorrow nor more testing kilometres for Lappi. what a bummer...

Wow thats a shame. Suninen and Lappi must have a proper test before Estonia or they would not stand a chance.

In another interview Lappi mentions testing a new engine/turbo. My guess is they had only one of those new parts in the JanPro car, and it's not reasonable to go testing with an old turbo.

The problem is that they don't make the decision soon enough, or even have it in the plan before the race. The guy behind who's just come out on fresh tyres & is 2 seconds a lap faster needs the call...
