Otepää talveralli

Otepaa Talveralli Rally Week

At least in one of the Baltic countries, the rally season has finally started. Lithuania and Latvia have to wait for it for almost a quarter of a year. The roads of the first event of the Estonian Rally Championship not only welcomed the local people but also became a training ground for many crews from all over the world. So it is – Otepää talveralli.

Lygnasprinten

Lygnasprinten Rally Week

The situation in the Rally World is now such, that instead of choosing what to write about, you are just looking for something that at least happened over the weekend. And luckily for all of us, there is a bit of action – either Southerners or Northerners are moving a little bit. On the other hand, it’s quite interesting to look for more valuable stories from events you wouldn’t even know about in normal times.

Qatar International Rally

Qatar international Rally Week

This time, the Qatari rally is more exciting than usual. In the past, the bet was worth either of the second place winner or the number of minutes Nasser Al-Attiyah would beat his nearest opponent. And in history, the number of those minutes ranged from one to 15. So it’s no wonder that this year it was the fifteenth victory of a Qatari in his home – Qatar International Rally

Rallye de Monte Carlo

Rally de Monte Carlo 1986

Arctic Lapland Rally ’21

Arctic Lapland Rally Week #03

This early Thursday morning, nature itself reminded me of what I need to do or at least start doing. Having spent a good half hour intensively clearing the only entry into the World from metric snow tongues and walls, I put probably a good third of the text in mind. I felt like a real polar resident, waving a snow shovel in the morning instead of exercising or yoga. You couldn’t even ask for better circumstances and mood for a text about the Arctic Lapland Rally. It is a pity that I forgot to take a picture. If not for the main photo of the article, then at least in the archive.

Rallye de Balagne ’20

Rallye de Balagne Rally Week

This regular event in France, the Rallye de Balagne, is important that it has at least taken place. In the context of these days, when uncertainty is more than action, it’s good to see cars moving somewhere. And it gives hope, no matter what the situation in the World is – we may no longer have the time of several months when the whole action took place in garages and E-space.

Olympus Rally ’20

Olympus Rally 2020

North America is such a geographically diverse continent where you can find many similar places from all over the world. This feature is also reflected in the rally. The U.S. Rally Championship has enough rallies that are strongly reminiscent of the WRC Championship. In the winter, the WRC takes place in Sweden, and a similar Sno * Drift rally takes place in the USA. The WRC Finland is very perfectly replicated by the Ojibwe Forest Rally roads and the same thousands of lakes around. And the style of autumn Wales is best reflected during the Olympus Rally.
