Besides Patrik Sandell(video), Henning Solberg and Petter Solberg many others have tested for Norway this weekend. Anders Gröndal rolled his Subaru during testing in Norway, but both he and the car escaped without major problems. Mads Östberg – same team and same test – went into the ditch, but also him without further problems. Their second day of testing is reported to have become more successful. Patrik Flodin and Andreas Mikkelsen tested in Lima while PG Andersson did a small warm-up on Sunday before his real test today, Monday. Also Russian youngster Evgeny Novikov has tested, first time in the Citroen C4WRC. The test is reported to have went well and Novikov got around 330 km’s in the car on full snow.

Saturday, January 3rd, 2009Despite the fact that the M1 entry time has closed for the WRC silly season is going on at it’s best. I made a quick list of entries (as far as I know) that will do at least one and probably more than one rally in the WRC 2009. However, I’m sure this list is far from complete, and some facts may be incorrect, so please make it better by adding what you know in the comments. I’ll try to update the list based on your comments as good as I can.
