Some time ago I wrote a bit about the game they call “official WRC game” but which is, in my opinion, pretty much garbage with only the customer support being worse than the game itself. First one, released in 2010, was bad, and the sequel only reiterated that despite claims about improvements across the board....
It’s quite odd that rally, or rather World Rally Championship, still lingers in the 80s or 90s when it comes to TV coverage and taking advantage of modern communication infrastructure. And the infamous daily 30 minute reports with nothing else in between. So, full day of rallying and all the drama and excitement and flair...
With FIA still sticking to North One Sport for handling of accreditation requests made by electronic media, we had to look elsewhere for answers. Logically, next step would be to visit official websites of World Rally Championship events. And that did it.

Unique combination of breathtaking scenery, enthusiastic crowds and packed entry list that gives this event a special, sweet taste of rallying at it’s best. “It was...
The Richard Burns Foundation raised one extremely interesting topic on Twitter, asking it’s followers what got them involved in rallying. Great question and the one I often thought about, but also the one I cannot find single answer to. It could be the overall feeling of being a part of one large family, with rally...
