As for 2021, calendar as it stands, Sweden cancelled (was the TBC) and Monte we'll know this week: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rogerbee 92 Posted January 5 After what's been happening, I'd say that calendar is strictly provisional. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PJTierney 4,962 Posted January 11 https://dirtfish.com/rally/wrc/monte-carlo-rally-shortened-again-in-organizational-boost/ Quote The Automobile Club de Monaco has issued the itinerary it hopes will keep the World Rally Championship’s season-opening Monte Carlo Rally on course to go ahead for later this month. The timetable for the January 21-24 event has been altered to fall in line with coronavirus-enforced curfew regulations coming from the French government.

PJTierney 4,962 Posted January 14 https://dirtfish.com/rally/wrc/arctic-rally-wrc-round-gets-green-light/ Quote The World Rally Championship will have a winter rally in 2021 as the Arctic Rally Finland’s place on the calendar was announced on Thursday. Rally Sweden was canceled in December due to a rising number of coronavirus cases in the Värmland region, leaving the WRC short of a snow round. But as predicted by DirtFish, WRC Promoter and Finnish motorsport’s governing body AKK have been in close discussions about holding a second WRC round in Finland. The Arctic Rally will therefore fill the void left by Sweden, running on February 26-28 from its Rovaniemi base – just outside the Arctic Circle – as the second round in 2021 after the Monte Carlo Rally. However the rally’s 10-stage, 161-mile route will take place within the Arctic Circle where temperatures could drop below -22 Fahrenheit. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tbtstt 2,405 Posted 18 minutes ago Gutted for Teemu and M-Sport. The Fiesta is my favourite car of the field, but I would be surprised to see it on the podium this year. Suninen looked to have immense pace, but just pushed too hard too early. Now all hopes for the Fiesta are in the hands of Greensmith... 😐 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
