Czech rally news

Actually he's not the first one First one was Petr Šimurda, great driver who was missing on Czech stages for couple of years and finally returned this year into proper historic competition with his LR in historic spec. That's the second spectacular 130LR (in works colors) which You could see in the videos from Valašská rally. Yesterday he was second overall in historics behind Neumann with Escort Cosworth.

This is him in 2013. Very spectacular! Once he even managed to finish 8th overall in a rallysprint championship event when there was some snow.

Watching the video is a bit painful for me as it is full of events and stages which are now only a history...

I would add one vid of Petr Šimurda, he also made gymkhana style series of video with his orange Skoda https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-Q4hWudR4Y

Awesome onboard of Vlček from the best stage of Kopná with a massive big moment at 6:00. Especially let's say from 4:30 to the finish it's likely the craziest rally road we have.

Specially for Ucci great onboard of Kostka from beautiful Kameňák stage (first 1,5 km is part of Troják from Barum, the rest is Kopná-specific): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcW79bxbkbU

A bit strange but Peugeot R2 Cup finally will be held along the Czech Championship even when it doesn't count all MČR events. It starts on Rally Šumava and continues with Český Krumlov, Hustopeče, Bohemia and Barum. It's held under promotion from the ASN itself.

Up to date there are 12 crews on entrylist but are they ALL running the Peugeot 208 Cup

Honestly I don't know. The netries for Šumava and ERC Historic Vltava are closed now however the seeded lists have not yet been published. Anyway in the modern event it's 18 R5, 2 WRC, 3 S2000, 6 GT or 15 R2 cars. The main contenders are for sure Kopecký, Pech, Lukyanuk. There is number of other foreign drivers like Nordgren or not that fast von Thurn und Taxis. Also some of them in 2WD class.

Spectacular video from Kopná!
