I accidentally deleted my post... Pech made a mistake in one of many junctions on the stage. It is in fact sort of labyrinth made on Tatra testing grounds.

Now Cerny drops time on SS11, but still has a decent amount in hand with one stage to go.

Pech took enough time from Černý on the last stage to get on 2nd place but there is a 5 second penalty for Pech in the air (for hitting a chicane). Not confirmed in this moment though.

Cerny seemed to go a bit off the boil on the last two stages.. anyway for me at least it was a better than expected performance from him.
Kopecky was really in charge this weekend. Maybe Pech needs time to adjust to the R5 still or maybe Fabia is just too far ahead.

Černý may have gone off on the penultimate stage. If no more penalties for chicanes (a sad record of 120 chicanes on the rally) come the final results look like this:
1. Kopecký (Fabia R5) 1:30:57,8
2. Pech (Fiesta R5) +1:11,1
3. Černý (Fabia R5) +1:12,1
4. Dohnal (Focus WRC) +2:01,1
5. Odložilík (Fiesta R5) +3:04,5
6. Vlček (Fiesta R5) +3:22,7 (10 sec pen and puncture)
7. Szeja (Fiesta R5) +3:30,9 (10 sec pen)
8. Tlusťák (Fabia R5) +4:25,4 (5 sec pen)
9. Tarabus (Fabia S2000) +4:27,6 (5 sec pen) - a good example of how much the cars developed in the last few years
10. Štajf (Fabia R5) +4:52,4 (20 sec pen)
As there was an interest about the R2 here is their final top 5:
1. Wagner (208 R2) 1:41:34,8
2. Barčák (Adam R2) +1,5
3. Mareš (208 R2) +58,3 (30 sec pen)
4. Gryc (208 R2) +1:07,0
5. Dohnal (208 R2) +2:42,0 (10 sec pen and an off today)
There was only one retirement from top ten entries - Jakeš due to a crash. Březík who was leading gr.N crashed on the same place in second run.
And a final note for Ucci: Top scoring Porsche of Janota (former historic ERC champion) finished on 21st place behind 4 R2 cars. 2 of 5 cars retired due to drivetrain problems. It was full dry with anti-cutting obstacles everywhere so with little dirt on the road. On the ther hand incredible number of chicanes limit top speed advantage and moreover slows Porsches more than other cars because they are simply too big.Last edited by Mirek; 26th March 2017 at 13:51.
