Seems to be some delay.. Maybe it will be long delay. I would stay up.
First SS is
SS1 Lankamaa 1 - 23.47 km - 16:08 - --->31<-----. 7. 2014

But everything I know is outdated and wrong so this could be too, dotcha know.

Was a pretty entertaining event. I wonder how much practice Grönholm got in the Hyundai.

Continuing a very sad, very disappointing and what has to be soul-shattering revelation:
SS1 Retirement
#46 Bin Eidan, Salah - Gelsomino, Alessandro Ford Fiesta R5 Didn´t start
#47 Vallario, Marco - Pascale, Antonio Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X Didn´t start
#84 Vilenius, Tomi - Ryynänen, Sami Renault Clio R3 Retired
#83 Semenov, Alexey - Marov, Igor Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X Didn´t start
#90 Kuikka, Jari - Pitkänen, Janne Honda Civic Type-R Retired
#111 Urlichich, Leonid - Garrod, Darren Ford Fiesta R2 Didn´t start

Oh. Canada....

He must be

Results on WRC.com show Medical at TC1... so something on the first transit sidelined them.
Nothing on the virtual notice board, nothing in the news.

From facebook...
Unbelievable bad luck continues!

New co-driver for this rally - Darren Garrod - hurt his back on a very average jump at the test stage before the rally. It wasn't bad at first so we got 3 more test runs in.

Gotta say, the stage was amazing, I so loved it!!! There's a reason why this is the best reason in the world!

The pain got worse, but Darren decided to go through the start ramp despite severe pain, because that would allow a theoretical restart tomorrow. Here we have to thank M-Sport Poland and Alison for their special assistance!

But as the day went on we realized that there's no way we can go into the stages.

So, a DNS for us in Finland

I added package to my Dish subscription to get MavTV for their WRC coverage. It shows live coverage today and on Sunday for 1 hour each day. Interested to see if it's just live coverage or if it's a review show of any kind. We're planning to have WRC nights on the Tuesday following each event and it would be nice to not have to download European review videos and just watch them through my satellite DVR.

they seem pretty live, i was watching some of those for wrx mexico.

if you watch all of the live stage coverage and then the actual produced show you end up seeing the same clips twice (some) .. but hey its all good. smiling smiley

A buddy of mine was over there 2 weeks before and was nice enough to bring me back one of the official spectator guides, complete with stage map, guide and entry list!!!!

It is printed in Finnish and English.

I'm interested in what this is like too.



Grassroots rally. It's what I think about.
