[ERC] Tet Rally Liepāja 2023

[Lead]

Ss2 cancelled?

Thats a real shame. They could increase the starting gaps, if the dust is the main issue?

I suppose that would throw out the whole day's schedule.

Couldn't they predict the dust problem before the rally?

Just watching SS1, very strong words from most of the drivers against these conditions. They need a solution!

Interesting... 3 Japanese/Finnish crews leading ERC4 after SS1

Sesks is there, but additionally to him only one Latvian driver in the start list and this one with Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X. I hope Sesks makes rally more popular in Latvia.

I have just had a look at the full results of SS1 and you are right. I cannot find any other Latvian drivers there. Is Latvian rallying in such a bad state? That's sad!

I dont know what is the last deadline to change day schedule but there were weather forecast already at the beginning of month predicting very dry conditions in the region. So I believe this could have been avoided or the organizers hoped for last chance rain.

Nice time by Virves. He has to start show himself finally

It's nice for sure but Latvia is pretty similar to Estonia from roads and surface point of view, this is his place to show.
