The first three World Cup rallies are behind us, and there were three different winners - same situation as in 2012 - although Schlesser/Zhiltsov were on podium on all occasions, so it's small wonder that they're leading the classification. There are five rallies to go, but four of them are bajas, and Holowczyc/Schulz (who are doing the whole season) might be able to catch up. In such a case Schulz would be the Co-drivers' champion fourth time in a row - he won the title in 2010 and 2011 with Novitskiy, and in 2012 with Al Mutaiwei.

We went to the Sealine Cross Country last week for team van Merksteijn. My first Cross Country Rally, liked it! Obviously not as spectacular as a WRC Rally, but still really nice to see/photograph. Especially in the dunes its nice! Hopefully more will follow and Dakar offcourse!

I do not know, I think AER is more Dakar than American "Dakar", so I am happy JLS is there :-) Only pity there is no competition for him..
