How did such a slow driver as Bisaha get number 1 in this event?

No, you forgot that he won Rally Kipard last year :)

Welcome to the life of private rally drivers.

3 stages gone today and Kopecky hasn't won even one. Gryazin and his Volkswagen still lead the rally.

Another Volkswagen in trouble:...

Maybe this 2nd is enough. You never know if Gryazin sees the finish line...

Gryazin fastest on shakedown:

Congratulations to Pech, but... can we compare this situaltion to Neubauer winning Austrian championship against Baumschlager a few years ago? I mean a driver, who normally cannot win, buys/rents a...

Yes, I agree.

Ah, sorry then! Somebody told me that WRC cars cannot score points. Thank you for correcting me.

My opinion is simple. Pech won two rallies, but has zero points in the championship. How much sense does it make sport-wise?

But at the end of the day it was the 14-year-old Ford Focus WRC that was faster than the brand new Skoda Fabia R5. Vaclav Pech wins the rally!

Despite the hard times of pandemic entry list is great! :up:

Good video indeed! Some moments worth noticing:

- Lukyanuk's mistake at 3:53 --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sp0_nHdnVac&t=233
- Semerad, who is very fast and spectacular in his little Opel...

I like the educational value of the description of this video:

"we made a big mistake standing in this position. It was the first and last time we stood in very dangerous places." :)

They say something about problems with tyres and pacenotes here:
