    flash info (23 - Zawada Aleks / Dachowski Grzegorz): On the previous stage we went wide and hit a curb. We lost a lot of time, but we are here and still going.

    Chris was sick for whole week. Not so proper recce and also thats why he did only one FP. Last evening he was taken to hospital for inspection, he stayed there whole night. He tried to start today, but when I have seen his condition in the morning, I was almost sure he will retired...

    Cant find any tv for the SSS, just one interviewing the fans earlier. Shame.

    (12 - Botka Dávid / Mesterházi Márk): This super stage is perfect, but the previous six stages weren't so good.

    Maybe Botka is in wrong motorsport

    Yes, Lukyanuk dominates even though there are drivers with big experience in WRC in this rally. Brynildsen, Loubet, Suarez... they can only smell the fumes from his exhaust...

    I'm not sure about that interpretation. I think it's a push to say any of them have 'big experience in WRC'. More importantly none of them have been overly impressive in the WRC. Loubet actually has very little overall rallying experience though.

    Maybe the word "big" is a little exaggeration from my side, but I have just checked them out at www.ewrc-results.com and...

    Brynildsen drove as many as 46 rallies in WRC! That's even more than Lappi, who is a factory driver for Toyota
    Suarez drove 30 rallies in WRC. He was competing in WRC on a regular basis for 6 years.
    Loubet drove 24 rallies in WRC. Is that not many?

    95% of drivers in this event can only dream about such experience.

    ERC is in interesting shape currently, Lukyanuk is clear star who could be contender for WRC2 wins in almost every event but he is Lukyanuk and we all know how he is.
    Then we have Gryazin who is fast somewhere and not so fast in others and is still very unstable - kinda like Lukyanuk.
    Ingram could have potential but he has 0 to none 4wd experience so it's not easy to push against people he needs to beat to really prove himself against + also his funding seems to be on thin ice and one wreck could end his season, also missing Canarias due to illness is not helping.
    And for people who Jarek Z mentioned, Brynilden hasn't atleast to my knowledge proven anything in international level so far, he is been fast in Norway and in sweden but that's pretty much it.
    I have nothing to say about Loubet and Suarez, have they actually won anything or shown any speed?

    When Kajto decided not to do ERC this year the whole series lost a great benchmark, he wasn't as fast as Luky but he was consistent.
    Losing to Kajto speedwise ment you really need to build up your speed but beating him you could be up for something bigger.
    Sadly ERC is currently just Luky vs the rest.
