[WRC] Rally Sweden 2026

Could this be a stage win for Pajari?

Evans looking a bit sedate.

Edit: but not so bad.

Pajari has been looking quietly competent, this rally. Same for Lappi, who closed on Solberg a bit there.

And just like in Finland, 5 hours between the stages go the second time...

They want to final stages to run in the dark.

Solberg cant catch Pajari and Lappi is gaining on him !

The stage has been live for over 6 minutes and i am still watcing review of the rally so far. now the drivers will tell me about how the stage is.. for the second time today

They want to final stages to run in the dark.

In Finland too where it's light until 22?

When it was in Värmland, the the organizer wanted to avoid this and almost no stages in the forest went for the front runners in dark.
And the reason was because a possible rescue operation would be much more difficult in dark.
And everything else would be more difficult as well.

This is about the FIA ​​wanting to extend the day

I read somewhere that for this rally they want to have more night driving.

Great run Jon Armstrong !

Maybe promoter but definitely not the organizer.
It was quite difficult to get hold of marshalls who could imagine being in the forest until it was almost dark.
Now they have to be in place at 05-19 at for example Vännäs, and get back on the day after to see that they dont missed something.

And as I said, safety was a huge deciding factor.
