There are plenty of beautifully cambered, three-dimensional flowing gravel roads in the Tartu region of Estonia, yet this fledging WRC rally continues to concentrate the fans into man-made arena sections, proliferated with advertising.
These areas are the places to avoid for McKlein.
Happily our full recce paid off and we found some fantastic spots on the route. This is the heart and soul of Rally Estonia for us.
