British Rally Championship 2022

Yeah if they’re smart about it the BRC will include him in their video coverage. If it wasn’t for the fact he was official competing at Rali Ceredigion in the TER Series they should have done the same with Hayden Paddon.

Let’s just hope Solberg competing (and let’s face it, probably winning) the Cambrian isn’t just glossed over and they actually capitalise on it to bring some more media interest to British rallying.

he is keeping the trend which used at Hyundai before the rallies,excuses that he has to run 3 years at Wales.
Too much annoying,he wants to have an excuse if he will not be fast.

That's just your interpretation of a fact he is stating. He's said nothing but positive things about being back on the Wales stages that he loves.

He says it because it's TRUE... most WRC rallies are still new to him and need learning.

And regarding the Cambrian Rally, on the contrary, he's actually reminding people that he HAS been to Wales before and even done two of the stages.
 
O Solberg:
'Great fun on the @CambrianRally shakedown today - ride onboard from my perspective through the stage and see why I love these roads so much !'

Hardly looking for excuses if he's not fast.
 
Anyone know where the shakedown stage was? I gather that the Clocaenog stage of the actual rally is Clocaenog East rather than -Mid. East was often a popular choice for the shakedown stage on Rally GB though

The middle hasn't been used much for years due to the windfarm that went in there. Some of the tracks are now really wide and well maintained, while some of the more characterful bits and link roads previously used for rallying appear to be little used or somewhat abandoned by forestry operations.

I wondered whether that shakedown stage was somewhere west of Penmachno, but I'm not that familiar the area. It look's more Mid Wales-ish to me though.
 
Shakedown was at Dolwyddelan.
The Clocaenog stage is using vast majority that was the Rally GB shakedown stage.

I’m still annoyed that it’s one of the few stages I’ve not done competitively as spectators walking out down the road caused it to be cancelled for us in 2016 :mad:
 
Solberg 10s faster than anyone on SS3, the first gravel stage.
