    Chris Ingram on his ERC Skoda R5 drive with Toksport:

    ”I have been aiming to compete in the top tier of the European Rally Championship for a long time. Thanks to the €100,000 prize fund for winning the ERC Junior U27 title last year it has made that dream a possibility. There were many many discussions and options on the table so It has been an incredibly difficult task to choose the right one.

    Having met with Toksport in Germany in February I am very confident with my decision, they are a passionate and top team and their offer was too good to refuse. They want to win as much as me so it makes perfect sense! I can’t wait to drive the Fabia R5 for the first time and to start a new title fight in the Azores next week with the new team and car. The Azores is one of my favourite rallies in the world, however I’ll face a big challenge.”

    Tobacco advertising is still allowed on Azores?

    No one questions the speed of Bernardo Sousa but we also know that he´s very inconsistent in terms of results.
    Also it's not the best car to win on this gravel stages.

    Alem Mar is a brand not a company. The company is called "Empresa Madeirense de Tabacos" and the other is "Fabrica de Tabaco Micaelense" and runs under the "Play" brand. They will compete also in Madeira Championship with a second team.
