dont like the way its landing,imho s2000 was landing much better.
S2000 was very nose-heavy in jumping. This car jumps pretty straight. The dampers may have worked better on the S2000 but in this moment it's already beyond my recognition. Generally R5 now appears a little Polo-like.
The landings look much softer now than they did during Portugal or the Finland tests.
I still find it strange they didn't have the setup better from the start after all that testing, but maybe they concentrated on reliability.
Some onboards with Baumschlager, first I have seen of the Fabia R5 on gravel:

This morning Kruuda commented about the Skodas: "I'm not giving up on the fight, but when I saw their pace off the line - wow"
They seem to have a clear advantage on this fast gravel event.
Hirschi retired with oil pressure problems. Wondering whether it's the same issue as in Portugal.
On the other hand, the Skodas look quite convincing as far as the engine goes.
Gustavo Saba (Paraguay) nice livery!
dont know where he will participate.

Probably in Paraguayan Championship and in FIA Codasur Championship.
There is also rumour that Ilo Diehl, the driver that bought a Peugeot 208 R5, also bought a new Fabia R5. Saba's team service his car, and he only had problems with the Peugeot (most of them because of himself).
Kopecky, Lappi pre-Bohemia test, unfortunately mostly just one corner but mixed conditions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KXWjH_47_mk
