    Shakedown and SS1 of Rally Bohemia today with Mikkelsen as zero car in the new Fabia. Hopefully someone will be taking some unnoficial timings..

    No official debut in Finland though.. maybe Barum instead?

    How does the new Fabia look, sound and compare with the old one in Bohemia?

    And another: https://youtu.be/dR8kr-mmX3c

    Spectacular driving by Mares in particular.. the twisty bit through the town is a good place to compare. The old Fabia is super agile (remember Kopecky's Deutschland SSS win?)

    New one you can see the extra size, on the other hand it looks tighter in body control. Both look powerful from low revs but Kopecky says the power delivery in the new one is instant, even from below tickover revs.

    Any direct comparison is nice at this stage and what you say is correct re body control. The size of the RS is apparent too.. it looks as big as the Focus WRC in the video.
