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
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.

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.

What to do, when everything around you is plunging back into a pandemic stagnation, autumn mood, and there are still unresolved issues, untested adjustments to car settings, kilometers not covered, and so on? You just take and organize a small rally to put the last points on the letter i.

You will rarely find a gravel rally in Germany. Maybe because of this and the late-year dates, this event is really popular and brings together a very varied list of attendees.

The Barbados Rally is probably more of a phenomenon than just an event in this tiny island country. Luckily, the pandemic affairs did not stop this wonderful celebration from happening.

A couple of months ago, I had the great pleasure of hearing one really extremely interesting interview. So I had a thought, to write about another woman in the rally world. She is, among other things, one of the most famous female co-drivers, 1892m. receiving the Halda Award – the highest evaluation trophy that a reader of the pace notes can receive. Plus she’s one of two people in history who has earned points at the World Rally Championship as a driver and as a co-driver. And here last week, Mrs. Fabrizia Pons put another cup on her shelf.

Things in the first 2020 months in Lithuania were not at the best. After Dakar, only one positive thing was to watch on WRC+, as Deividas Jociuscius was reaching his dreams to start in WRC Monte Carlo with the latest spec WRC car. And he proudly made it. But after that, since winter took a vacation, the only news you were about to hear – another canceled event due to warm weather. And then later mister quarantine knocked on the door saying – no more rallying for You.

On the occasion that the World Rally Championship will probably end in Belgium, I will give a bit of attention to it. And also to one woman from there whose car you see in the photo of this post. So, Rallye Sprint du Trefle.

Yes, I also have never heard of this Rally Bilmetro. And nothing strange, it happens irregularly and infrequently. But somehow this last stage of the Swedish championship has as many as four interesting hooks to hang out for. Let’s get started.
