So, we’re going to Sweden. It’s a brave call.

As I pointed out in my last column about Rally Sweden’s plight, the organisers are quite literally damned if they do and damned if they don’t. In many ways, saying yes and backing themselves was the only option.

Sure, the weather might get warmer at the end of the week. But it might get colder. And it might snow. And snow and snow. And imagine the frustration for Glenn Olsson and his crew if he’s pulled the plug last night, only to sit and watch winter arrive around him.

It’s happened before.

The flip side, of course, is that conditions in Norway worsen and we then lose even more stages. Right now, we only have Hof-Finnskog, Finnskogen and Nyckelvattnet, comprising 60 kilometres, to play with as it is. And that’s if they all run to their full length. What do we do if Friday’s run damages those roads beyond repair? What does Saturday look like then?

I doubt very much, for example, they organisers will run Likenäs on Sunday morning, if there’s any danger of that impacting on the power stage. Instead, we’ll likely have a lie-in on Sunday, then watch a single 21-kilometre test live on telly.

I’ve spoken to folk from all corners of the service park and, privately, there are grave concerns about round two next week.

Undoubtedly, what was presented on Tuesday night is the best case scenario. And it was presented with everything crossed.

Teams are testing this week, but they’re testing for conditions about which they know precious little. And conditions which are constantly evolving.
