Where is document stating that there would be service before SSS?

I dont think there is a service like some people say.. Just a place where all the cars gathering for the SSS
On the swedishrally site it says no service beetween ss19 and 20.
On swedish rallyradio they said no service either.
Some drivers say they will have the same tyres on ss20 too.

[Perra71]

I just noted that there are no service in that itinerary?
I guess they have changed it since I printed it out!

[J4MIE]

Don't think there is service before SSS.

Splits suck this morning :s

[Peugeot206WRC]

damn.. ATKO move out of the way.. wtf is he doing

[jonkka]

I just noted that there are no service in that itinerary?

Might be - besides, supplementary regs were published 7.12.2006!

[atsiotras79]

Is finally Eurosport covering the SSS?

[Perra71]

Eurosport2 14:00 CET

[atsiotras79]

Thank you Perra71.

[Peugeot206WRC]

Perra71 do you know if svt also will be show it live? Its also 1400

[Catiocha7]

Anybody knows what happened to Nasser Al-Attiyah in SS18 ?

[J.Lindstroem]

Do anyone here know why Marcus is called Bosse? Always wanted to know that... :P

[Perra71]

Peugeot206WRC:
Yep, 14:00 on SVT1

[Bruno Portela]

Galli seems to be driving very slow

[Wim_Impreza]

Only 4.9 seconds between Østberg and Kopecký after SS18.

[Woodeye]

Do anyone here know why Marcus is called Bosse? Always wanted to know that... :P

As far as I know it's just a nickname.

[Tomi]

Do anyone here know why Marcus is called Bosse? Always wanted to know that... :P

a nick his sister mia gave him when he was small

[Woodeye]

I think this rally is pretty much wrapped now.

Hopefully I can already at this point congratulate Marcus and Timo of their great drive and win.

And as always it was great to follow the rally with you guys. :up:

[alleskids]

Is Atkinson out of the rally ? I do not see his name in the results.

[Catiocha7]

Hey Guys
Does Anybody know what happened to Nasser Al-Attiyah on SS18 ?
I couldn't find his name ! :(

[Christina]

Yeah, chris is eigth according to the estonian splits after stage 19.

[SubaruNorway]

Still in on eight after ss19

[Peugeot206WRC]

Is Atkinson out of the rally ? I do not see his name in the results.

No hes 8 so far...
He only got front wheel drive at ss19 and slowed down Carlsson who had to drive behind him at the stage.

[bennizw]

Have I missed anything when I say that people have been talking about that Wilson is finished in the Focus after this year? Of course due to not showing any talent or speed? Some people have said this has been spoken about in Sweden. Thought he was on a 5 year plan or something? Well, we see anyway how much faster Mads Østberg is compared to Matt!

[Peugeot206WRC]

Yea, on swedish rallyradio they talked about this. It was from the service park.
Also Flodin, who hasnt drive a wrc car before and a older car then Wilson, is also faster.

[Mauri A]

Quite funny, Marcus told that he and Timo made some precautionary things with a knife to prevent problems which Stobart cars had.
Puukkoa perkele!

[Peugeot206WRC]

Anyone know anything about Atkinson, will he drive the last stage?
Only front wheel drive and problems with the engine?
If not Östberg might get his first wrc point :)

[J4MIE]

Yea, on swedish rallyradio they talked about this. It was from the service park.
Also Flodin, who hasnt drive a wrc car before and a older car then Wilson, is also faster.

What spec is Flodin's car?

Is SS20 at 14:00 CET?

[Peugeot206WRC]

What spec is Flodin's car?

Is SS20 at 14:00 CET?

S10, same as Johansson and Carlsson had in 2005 or something.

Yes, 14:00

[J.Lindstroem]

The Subaru of Flodin is 2004 spec, S10.

I am impressed by his drive, he has not made many mistakes in this rally... What do people think of his pace?

[padWRC]

What spec is Flodin's car?

Is SS20 at 14:00 CET?

Flodin's car is a S10 Olsbergs
Re Reg XKS 870 ex CT53SRT

[janneppi]

Yea, on swedish rallyradio they talked about this. It was from the service park.

Who talked about this?
One of the Wilsons or the commentators?

[Wim_Impreza]

He and Østberg are the big positive surprises for me.

[Peugeot206WRC]

Who talked about this?
One of the Wilsons or the commentators?

One of the commentators. He said that it was probably his last year in WRC/the car from what he heard at the service park.
He didnt wanna say from who he heard it. It could be a rumour but he sounded serious.

[padWRC]

Flodin said that he don t push,he just learn the car!

[Tomi]

I am impressed by his drive, he has not made many mistakes in this rally... What do people think of his pace?

ok drive but i waited a little more from him, yesterday when the rally was still on, his stage times was very unstable, sometimes ok and then not so good.

[Peugeot206WRC]

Flodin said that he don t push,he just learn the car!

Hehe yea, almost everyone (drivers) say that. But his goal was actually just taking the car to finish.

[A.F.F.]

Quite boring last day :down:

[GigiGalliNo1]

Quite boring last day :down:

is it?
i just came home. last stage! live broadcast too :D

[janneppi]

Quite boring last day :down:
Yeps, now that the mens downhill and Macgyver ended, i might as well ditch the sss and head on to make a presentation for tomorrow morning, oh the joy of Powerpoints.... :)

[JAM]

Pity, I have very good memories from Estoril.

Estoril? That was many years ago... I think 1996 was the last time that rally was based on Estoril. Then was Figueira da Foz and after that until 2001 was in Oporto.

[Peugeot206WRC]

is it?
i just came home. last stage! live broadcast too :D

He think so because Latvala and Garde is not on the top 10. :D

edit, sorry garde is..

[fastboy]

One of the commentators. He said that it was probably his last year in WRC/the car from what he heard at the service park.

What a load of rubbish that guy is talking about,Matt will be around for a while,and if you don't like him or think he is not quick enough then shut up going on about him.
Personally i think he will deliver the goods but i don't tell everybody this every day.

[J4MIE]

Cheers folks :)

Last days are always boring, rally was decided yesterday. No point in pushing if you are 40 seconds ahead or 40 seconds behind...

As for the superspecial, sure it's nice to have a "stage" in Karlstad, but as I've always said, it's not for the real fans and I don't like them at all :down: No matter if there is live coverage, it's still an artificial stage, if a lot of ice.

[GigiGalliNo1]

Will we be able to watch the SSS live? Anyone? Bec's said on radio we can't?!

[Tomi]

Matt will be around for a while,and if you don't like him or think he is not quick enough then shut up going on about him.
Personally i think he will deliver the goods but i don't tell everybody this every day.

I hope they take this project to the finish, i think it's interesting to see how good driver a guy with 0% talent but all the best possible equipment can become.

[GigiGalliNo1]

My bad it's live yay! will tell you guys how it is =)

[Peugeot206WRC]

What a load of rubbish that guy is talking about,Matt will be around for a while,and if you don't like him or think he is not quick enough then shut up going on about him.
Personally i think he will deliver the goods but i don't tell everybody this every day.

Why is it rubbish, if he keeps doing what he done so far this year and what he did last year I doubt they want him next year. Theres many many rallies left and he can improve.

But look at Östberg and Flodin, and probably Mikkelsen or whatever his name is. Already faster then Wilson even if he got 1 year full WRC experience, he doesnt develope fast.
Now Östberg and Flodin maybe know the snow better, but im sure they both would beat him also on gravel if they had to drive as much (or half) as Wilson and in that car he got (or probably the older cars they got). Its only embarrasing if he continue next year but still not any better, but the year has ónly started anything can happen.

[jonas_mcrae]

its it live on line? i cant get an image

[GigiGalliNo1]

[GigiGalliNo1]

ahhh

it works but only sound and just saw Gigi's car! A miracle hahaha

and now an interview! great stuff.

Hope ya'll had a good rally Sweden fellow formers! :)

[Finni]

Congratulations for Marcus. It was stylish win. Hopefully it will be the same case in Norway! After that C4+Loeb might be hard to beat - not forgetting also Solberg and 2007 Subaru which will bring Solberg back to winning fight.

[White Sauron]

not forgetting also Solberg and 2007 Subaru which will bring Solberg back to winning fight.

Why are you so sure it will?

[Finni]

Why are you so sure it will?

Because current Subaru is crap; its problems are identified but not solved due to homologation rules. Solberg is as fast as anyone on gravel and snow. Solberg is hard to beat in Mexico, mark my words.

[Peugeot206WRC]

Damn, now its over :(
But soon its rally norway :)

Congrats to Grönholm

[WRC2006]

Congratulations for Marcus. It was stylish win. Hopefully it will be the same case in Norway! After that C4+Loeb might be hard to beat - not forgetting also Solberg and 2007 Subaru which will bring Solberg back to winning fight.

The Subaru Impreza 07 will start in Mexico not in Norway.

That means the scrap Impreza 06 will be there in Norway again and don't expect Petter to win this rally even if it is home rally.

[Finni]

By the way, it will be interesting to see group N winner Hänninen in Norway with Mitsu Lancer alongside Gardemaister and Pons.

[WRC2006]

Because current Subaru is crap; its problems are identified but not solved due to homologation rules. Solberg is as fast as anyone on gravel and snow. Solberg is hard to beat in Mexico, mark my words.


But in this rally it was Petter's mistake not the car. Did you see how well did Chris unless the small mistake he made in pushing hard.

But he was on pace and the 5th position was really great for not being the specialist on snow.

[Finni]

The Subaru Impreza 07 will start in Mexico not in Norway.

That means the scrap Impreza 06 will be there in Norway again and don't expect Petter to win this rally even if it is home rally.


Did I say something about Norway? With words "after that" I referred to post-Norway situation and to rally of mexico.

[GigiGalliNo1]

it finnaly works with the podium cept Marcus is speaking in swedish or finnish! no understand haha but it works! :D

It is ok, as you knew about that. Good

.

[Micke_VOC]

Hänninen excluded http://www.swrt.com/championship/retirements.html

Yep, because of wrong fuel pumps.

Anyone now why Rais was excluded ?

[Micke_VOC]

More info on Hänninen:
He had two low pressure fuelpumps to much.

He confess it but think ha had handle in good faith and the pumps had not get him more horsepower.

..From http://www.svt.se the Swedish Television

[A.F.F.]

When it's not the underwear, it's fuelpumps.

Rules are rules but damn. :mad:

So, Oscar Svedlund won and Alen was second.

[Tomi]

funny is that the safetytank was bought from Sellholm tuning in sweden, as installready

[Tomi]

Ruotsin MM-rallissa N-ryhmän voittoon ajaneiden Juho Hännisen ja Mikko Markkulan suoritus on hylätty. FIA:n tekninen delegaatio raportoi jälkikatsastuksen jälkeen kilpailun tuomaristolle, että Hännisen Mitsubishin turvatankissa siirtopumput eivät olleet sääntöjen mukaisia.

Luokiteltu ATL:n turvatankki oli hankittu N-ryhmään autoon asennusvalmiina ruotsalaiselta Sellholm Tuningilta.

Hylkäys syy: turvatankissa oli siirtopumput keräilytankille varsinaista korkeapainepumppua varten. Tuomariston päätöksen mukaan tekninen ratkaisu ei ollut sääntöjen mukainen. Tarkastuksessa myös todettiin, että polttoaineen korkeapainepumpun tuotto oli sääntöjen mukainen, eikä keräilypumpuilla siten ollut vaikutusta auton suorituskykyyn.

Vastaava turvatankki on ollut myytävänä jo useiden vuosien ajan.

Hännisen tiimi RRE Sports ei valita päätöksestä.

He went off and rolled about 11 km in to SS18.
Near the well known bridge over the pond

Hillarious, harrasment or not... Wonder what Loeb said, he seems to appreciate a good joke aswell though! This is one of the reasons I prefer rally over that other sport where they have one ball and two goals and a bunch of hooligans along with it...

Brilliant video! Ahh, hearing Giorgio singing his Gigi song brought back memories..

[pino]

Congrats to Marcus :up: another easy win for him as I expected, but it was sad that this stupid point-system (10 for the winner, 8 for the 2nd) adviced Loeb to slow down already on Saturday after 1st run. Also as expected by most people, Mikko finished on podium, while both my fave drivers ( Peter and Gigi) had an off :( Gigi once again showed how fast he's, hopefully he will take it more easy in Norway :p :

Once again I've had a great time thanks to a great company (DonJippo, Puddle Jumper, Brother John, his daugther and a danish friend of mine) :s mokin: and eventhough for the very first time I've experienced - 24c, I've already booked for 2008 :D
