    1 min penalty for vd Heuvel. Checked in too early at some time control.

    Nice weekend for the sport. Just like WRC and ERC, rally series around Europe are really worthy to follow this year!

    Yes, indeed. I have the impression that something has improved in the rally world this year. The beginning of the year seems promising.

    Hope some fellows understand that rallies are for those they drive fast,and not for those who choose more powerfull cars.
    I enjoy most of your posts and respect your views dimviii, but there’s a thin line between being stubborn and being stupid: I regret to say that on this Porsche driver’s subject you are clearly crossing that line.

    Facts:
    1. Despite being used by more than a dozen different drivers since 2008, only 3 drivers were able to win Spanish championship (CERA) events on a 911: Vallejo (20), Fuster (13) and Ares (3).
    2. Fuster was 3 times CERA champion on a 911 (’11, ’12 and ’15), Vallejo twice (’09 and ’14).
    3. Prior to his titles on a 911, Fuster was champion on a FWD car (Saxo KC in ’03) and on a 4WD car (Punto S2000 in ’07). His CERA’s rally winning score is one of the best in the series history.
    4. In 2014 Fuster entered the CERA on a Fiesta R5. He managed to win 4 rallies, the same number Vallejo won on his 911, and fight for the title till the last rally.
    5. He returned to a 911 in 2015 because he wasn’t able to get a full budget to run a R5 car (R5’s were 25% to 40% more expensive to run than a 911 on a CERA season).
    6. All Vallejo CERA’s wins were in 911’s, the car he drove from 2008 to 2014. Still, a few years back he was also a top contender on FWD KC1600/S1600 cars, managing to become an official driver for FIAT and Renault importers teams.
    7. Despite some events on S2000 cars and last season on a DS3 R5, Vallejo was never able to fight for a win on a CERA rally with a 4WD car.
    8. Ares was the CERA revelation in 2015. He managed to win 3 events on a 911 against Fuster, Vallejo and all the other 911 drivers.
    9. Last year, on his 3dr outing in a R5 car, he won CERA’s Rally Princesa de Asturias using a Fabia.
    10. On this weekend Rallye Sierra Morena he used a i20 R5 and was, alongside Garcia and Pernia, one of the drivers fighting for the win.
    11. Burgo never won any CERA rally on a 911. He was slower than top 911 drivers during past seasons and he managed to become vice champion last year, one of the most atypical CERA’s rally seasons ever, using also other cars (208T16 and Lancer N+). His best CERA results were in on his Lancer Gr.N or N+ days (several time Gr. N champion and 2 overall rally wins).

    I hope the data (easily checked on eWRC fantastic site) will make you realize that top 911 drivers results on spanish championship (like also in other countries) shouldn’t be judged lightly. Besides not being easy to win in a 911 (remember, in 9 years only 3 guys did it), Fuster and Ares examples clearly show that 911’s top drivers can also win on other cars and even Vallejo unexplained lack of speed on 4wd cars doesn’t hurt his amazing achievements during 911’s CERA era.

    nice post but,you didn't explain why Vallejo cant win with r5 car.As you said is several years champion.
    Burgo while he could win stages and finish as vice champion with 911,now is minutes behind.
    Why?
    when you will answer this question,you will see who is the stubborn and stupid.

    You might find the answer when answering what car is he driving, I guess.
