SS3 1,5 hours before first car.
First, the "envelope" area at junction was about 300 - 400 meters long. WTF? Second, marshals did not allow tu use it (1,5 hours before) and forced the spectators to ditch. There was about 60 - 70 cm snow there, I literally sank in up to the balls. Got myself back to road, told marshals to fuck off and marched to the spectator area. Majority of law abinding locals followed the ditch though. Poor them.

If you used that language to volunteer marshals giving up their free time to help the rally then you should be ashamed of yourself.

You should have heard how some of them talked to people, seen and heard a lot but this was on another level

Not sticking up for this type of language to volunteers but some of these volunteer's were completely out if line this year. I witnessed a marshal absolutely lose it with an Italian spectator who was walking up the stage 1.5hrs before 1st car. Causing zero harm to anyone. Firstly he was shouting in Swedish which the spectator did not understand and continues walking as was completely unaware, the marshal ran up the stage to the spectator and shouted in English to get the F**k off the road. Asked him if he was f**King Brain dead and if he didn't get behind the tape he was calling off the whole stage. The spectator actually apologised to which the marshal called him a F**King idiot.

I appreciate the work these volunteers do. Without these people these events do not take place, but it's something that needs major attention before 2023.

They only got what they deserved.
Never seen such aggressive and stupid marshals before.
If you cannot do your job, stay at home.

Been to Rally Finland for 20 years, zero problems. Top notch marshaling.

Whoever that is, needs banning from being anywhere near a rally ever again.

Quite a common situation. Never nice, but quite a common. With a lot of snow, the sound of the approaching car gets buried and you get surprised. Thank god for the short entry lists, so it's OK to spectate all the cars and leave only then.

It's the fact the guy's filmed it and put it on Twitter that really bugs me, like it's something to be proud of, "great banter"... anyone can make a mistake, that's bad enough, but boasting about how you're like a suicidal Group B fan is enough evidence for me that rallying would be better off without him and his mates being interested in it.

The car is Veiby’s Polo, likely second WRC2 car so they are walking on the stage quite early on. Difficult to understand.
