Report: Mini adventure at Rally Finland

Taking an embryonic WRC team to Rally Finland is a little like taking an U21 team to the senior World Cup. Raw talent is not enough on the ultra-fast, fluid, forever changing surface of gravel and grief that cuts through the rugged Nordic landscape; experience and local knowledge must be slowly accrued before dreams of a podium finish can become reality. Try too hard to tame Finland's dips, crests, camber and forest banks, and she'll exact her price in spectacular, bone-crunching fashion.
