Some impressions from rally Alūksne:
M. Sesks crazy fast, 5th overall, and nobody with 2wd, and only few with 4wd could catch him. I want to see him on other surfaces, usually faster you are on home soil, harder to adapt to another. Hope this ins't that case.
O. Solberg maybe not fast as his father yet, but has even more showmanship than Petter. He know how to deal with attention, he smiles, he comfortable with media, he even dances on podium. And he is real fast. on his first snow rally finish 2nd 2wd.
I said it after Liepaja ERC round, and I'll say it again - one to watch is A. Westlund. On his 3rd rally ever, he was 7th 2wd before technical failure. He has strong team behind him, and driven with Joakim Sjöberg, so they looking into future seriously. it's very early but Sweden may have another talent to come.
Ken Torn driven smart, was fast, but not fastest, until last stage, which was held on dusk time, so conditions could be tricky, and Torn had 4th stage time overall.

It was small and nice rally, no big names, but still good to watch, full results: http://autorally.lt/?m=4
Funny thing was that two crews Vanagas/Čepulis and Notkus/Strižanas has same time after all stages, and first place decided according FIA rules.
2nd round in Latvia and Estonia rally championships - Rally Sarma 2018. Entry list: http://autorally.lv/?m=2&l=2
Once again Valerii Gorban with Mini WRC; N. Gryazin back home before Vaakuna rally in Finland, Estonians R.Aus, E.Kaur and P.Koik with Estonian Proto cars (I heard those are different than Polish one, with rear suspension more R5-ish, don't know if it's true); Also fast youngsters O. Solberg, M. Sesks, A. Westlund and others. And not forget M. Samsonas with 4wd BMW M3.
This time, I think, Gorban won't win, Gryazin is crazy fast, also there is J. Berkis with R5 Fiesta, and if E.Kaur and M.Samsonas manages to stay out of troubles, should be very interesting rally.
Yes, Estonian protos are little bit different, build more like RX cars.
Samsonas won't come to Sarma.
Where are the results :confused: the link sends to news page :mark:
