I'm certain they will release some sort of tribute in the near future, it might not be posted on the website though.

[glow=red,2,300]ROUND 3--FINLAND[/glow]congratulations to FIM who have recoreded the best result in RFC history, with a double podium. this leaps the team into the lead of the championship. mark higgins wowed everyone on his way to 2nd place. his and skodas best ever performance. unfortunatly for the lions05 team, higgins was not nominated for points, and the team lose his 8 points. a bad weekend for some, but everyone knew finland would be hard. this result show who has been using their spare time to the maximum. the ford teams are a regular sight in the top 5 on any rally, but it seems the focus may be losing its edge as the highest place ford this weekend was 7th place colin mcrae in the martini team, after losing out in the feirce battle with the THL hyundai of hirvonen. [glow=red,2,300]next event-- Greece[/glow]

Ohhh that was bad, really bad. Both drivers noted a real lack of confidence within the car, so we'll have to adjust the setup of the cars differently to suit them more. But we did get a decent points haul from this event compared to some of our rivals, so I can't be too down beat about that.

Am I right in saying since Higgins wasn't nominated for manu points, everyone else should be bumped up a position? Panizzi in Team Moose Power came 9th overall and 7th of the nominated drivers, so by my calculation that's 2pts for the team.
It of course means FIM will go further ahead, but oh well, thems is the rules.

6th not a bad result however it would be a lot better if all of our 3 drivers reached the finish with Greece the next round in the championship i do expect lot more out of Wilks after his success winning the Grizedale Stages by over 30 seconds

Finch International Motorsport raced to the top of the RFC4 leaderboard with a double podium in Finland.
Marcus Gronholm took victory and Gigi Galli scored his first points for the team, taking third.
Gronholm, "It was a great weekend, I'm so glad to get our first victory and now we must aim for the title.
Galli, "What a weekend! However I am disappointed to lose second on the final stage to Mark Higgins, it would have been an amazing weekend, but a 1-3 is great, we still took maximum points.
Team boss Chris Finch, "I'm so proud of my boys, we were so close to a 1-2, but it's our first victory and podium. Watch out RFC, FIM's about.
For the upcoming rally in Greece, test driver Antony Warmbold will spend the week in the Acropolis, fine tuning the car ready for Marcus and Gigi.
A great rally for FIM then, who lead the championship by 4 points from Team Mixa.

Team Moose PowerSeb Loeb: "This was not a good rally for me. We were going very fast and I lost the line and in Finland that is not a good thing. Okay, these things happen. So we will move on and focus on the next rally. It was a big impact, however me and Daniel are okay."Gilles Panizzi: "This is not my preferred surface so I wanted to just beat the other Panizzi and score points. I did both of these things so I am happy. You dont know, maybe these 2 points will be significant in the end. I have finished all 3 rallies so far and my connection with the car is getting better. I want to continue this in Greece."Team Boss: "This result could have been worse. We were lucky that some good drivers were not nominated for points. This is the first rally where we haven't been on the podium. I hope we can get both cars back in the points in Greece."

I'm glad to see both drivers of TTR were able to finish even if they were low down. I think Loeb must of been tired after his win at Race Of Champions . Its good to see we are only 7 points from the leaders, hopefully we will score some points in Greece

rowland rally sport
ok, this has been a poor rally, we did not repeat our newzealand win which was a shame as richard has always wanted to win here in finland.
the next batch of rough rounds will not suit our team at all so we are focusing on testing for the tarmac rounds mid season, and are looking for double win in corsica and italy.
