Very nice, sounds good, looking forward to this ADAC 3-Städte Rallye. In matter of fact they once had the same idea in Belgium to group the 3 big national rallies (Ypres, Condroz and Spa) into one national WRC Rally Belgium but the plan never ever materialised. Albeit the WRC Ypres 2021 Rally had at least both Ypres and Spa rally parts.

According to president of ACCR Jan Šťovíček, the start ceremony will be held at Hradčanské náměstí, where is entrance to the Prague Castle. It is the same place where the beginning of Red Bull F1 Castle to Castle video were filmed.
The SSS will be probably around the Strahov stadium, where Prague Rallysprint Show took place yesterday.
It's nice for spectators, but idk if it's WRC worthy, I hope they will find a way to extend the stage. Imo it would be nice to start at the castle and finish the stage at the stadium. It's about 2km on lovely roads, starting with narrow cobblestone street, going into more technical section with crossroads, then hillclimb onto stadium area, where they can surely find 1 or 2 more kms. Also as video shown, there is a lot of space for spectators.

of course you are not sure.....you are in Orga of the (till last week) biggest Rally in your Country (since decades) and everybody wants to step up and try to get into WRC....and when you watch the ERC especially this year, it was a shadow of it´s glory days, and than somebody new is coming out of nowhere and gets WRC...of course you have to be "not sure"
but look at Rally Croatia for example, they came also out of nowhere and they delivered a very very well organised event. so my fingres are crossed for a nice new challenge in 3 different countries!Juha Kankkunen: "The speed was o.K., but the corner was to tight"

I must say I was never fan of stepping of Barum to WRC because I know lot of from behind of the scene. I know how much money it costs, I know how much more bureaucracy is needed, I know what FIA is doing etc.
But this "new" rally is something completely different. I dont like the system how it is built (with new organiser made from three different autoclubs). I dont believe cooperation between them will work (and not only based on experience with 3-Stadte this year). I dont like the style, how the rally was politicaly pushed to the calendar despite most of the people doesnt want it. Making big rally on WRC level from scratch is not easy... Everything will cost huge amount of money (which will be big issue for all other motorsport events in Czech and also from competitors) and I am not sure the result will be good...

Now that Spain isn't on the calender what is the best/accessible/economical European round to attend.
Meeke had a big gap to Rossel after stage 3 (20 sec) at stage 4 had a puncture and now the gap to Rossel is just 2 sec Gryazin strangely slow,anybody now why?...
