2 Finns to enter the JWRC battle in Portugal

Young Finnish drivers Andreas Amberg and Niko-Pekka Nieminen will start their JWRC battle today in Portugal. Both these drivers have got the potential for podium finish, but they want to make a controlled start to this veru challenging event. They acknowledge the nature of this rally and the risks of narrow Algarvian roads on which too fast pace can end the drivers journey too early. There will be a total of 10 drivers in JWRC, which includes Pontus Tidemand of Sweden. After his outrageous performance in Rally Sweden earlier this year in the WRC class, Tidemand will without doubt be the first candidate to take the JWRC title.
