This year we have chosen a track in Estonia where we have not held a competition so far. Laitse is one of the most sought-after rallycross tracks in the neighboring country, so drivers of the Latvian-Lithuanian rallycross championship had also shown interest in it. The track configuration and terrain are technically challenging, drivers will have the opportunity to show the skills they have learned over the years to fight for the top places in this round. Laitse is designed so that it is convenient for spectators to watch the competition as well, the stands are located in an area from which you can see the entire track!"
