That dot in the distance making a tasmanian devil style cloud in its wake is Mikko Hirvonen, testing his Citröen DS3 WRC on some gravel paths in Tuscany. Cool eh? Oh look, it's getting closer, and closer and...oh maremma maiala*, shouldn't those Michelins be on the bottom of the car?!...
* Tuscany is a region known for colorful swearing!

Rally Finland will scare even rally drivers...I think that's saying something.
Commentary is Dutch ( I think...correct me if I'm wrong) but the driver interviews are in English. Here is Mikko Hirvonen on the Ouninpohja stage:

Ever notice the there is a certain look to some rally drivers....kind of a bug eyed quasi psychotic thing going with the eyes... Gilles Panizzi, Hirvonen, and take a look at Petter Solberg...
Could it be that look comes from driving stages the Finns quaintly line with organic, recyclable guard rails? Here is Jan Kopecky in a Skoda.
Mikko Hirvonen...
Sebastian Loeb is philosophical...
Manfred Stohl is on a roll...
and finally some hi-lites...
