    Rally Sweden

    EPIC beginning to the 2011 WRC season! So happy to see the Ford boys dominate (being a lifelong fan of the Blue Oval). What the heck happened to the Citroen factory effort, though? Petter was Citroen's best hope for the podium, before he got busted for speeding, and he's running a privateer effort. Ogier was decent, but Loeb was really off the pace.

    Where did you watch the rally? Are they on Discovery HD again?

    They are, but not live. I believe Rally Sweden airs next weekend. We've been listening to the WRC Radio stream. Brilliant stuff!

    Finished P8. Pretty respectable, really. Block finished P14 which wasn't bad given that it was his first rally on snow studs. He's rallied in the snow before, but Rally America doesn't allow studded tires because many municipalities now don't permit them and the cars must be street-legal.
