Italian Rally News

[ProRally]

Just back from my first Monza Rally Show, and yes it was a GREAT SHOW !!
LOTS of WRcars and S2000 !! Lot of crazy Italian supporters ...
Good to see Marcus having fun...

[Juha_Koo]

]Kris Meeke once said that modern WRC cars are like playstation - easy to drive for anyone.

But you have to remember that while the WRC cars have become easier to drive, the speeds have increased. Risto Mannisenmäki was onboard in JML's tests and he described the speeds as "very significantly increased from my active days".

Mikko has said that modern cars are indeed easier to drive, but the increased speed and precision needed brings totally new challenges.

But maybe Meeke could show us how it's done and win WRC next year. Playing Playstation is so easy for everyone. ;)

[PLuto]

Of course, on the highest level, it is also about skills of driver. Good drivers from WRC will be (or should be) fast also in S2000. But not lot of "average drivers", who can fight for podium, top 5 or top 8 in WRC...

Soon is the Bologna Motorshow(Memorial Bettega, etc)...usually great entrylist of international drivers with WRC cars :)

[Tom206wrc]

Juha Kankkunen on entrylist of Prealpi Mastershow this week-end :)

What happened to Robert Kubica on SS2 Driver Rally Show today :confused:
http://www.cronocarservice.it/temporeale/classificaparziale.asp

[Ondra WRC]

Tom: Kubica had problems with fuel pump..

[Tom206wrc]

Robert Kubica and Dimitris Amaxopoulos are on entrylist of this week-end's Rally Internazionale Cioccheto :)
http://www.cioccocentromotori.it/


Strange though...on Rallylink forum I've read Roman Odlozilik should have entered the event on a Fabia S2000 but he isn't on entrylist :s

[Mirek]

I can't see any reason why he would go there...

[tolis]

Does anyone know what happened in Rally Internazionale il Ciocchetto??? 4 stages are cancelled...

[Ondra WRC]

tolis11: were canceled due to a lot of snow

[tolis]

Thanks Ondra WRC!!!!

[urabus-denoS2000]

Great news for all Marco Zannier fans !

Zannier was invited for the traditional Vallelunga Rally School at the end of the year alongside 5 other drivers.This is an invitation by the Italian Federation for the 6 young drivers who showed the most during the year and of course Marco was one of them :)

He is currently finding the budget for an Fiat 500 R3T for next year


Greetings from the Marco Zannier Croatia Fan Club ;)

[Barreis]

Piero Liatti was his teacher..

[Tom206wrc]

On 6th january there will be the 2010 Expo Rally in Italy where many teams and officials will announce their program and new cars for the coming season :)
http://www.exporally.it/

[Jarek Z]

Piero Liatti was his teacher..

I wish I had such teacher! :)

I don't know if it's true, but Autoklub.pl say that Basso is talking to Skoda Italia about the contract for 2010 Italian Championship. Apparently FIAT's programme in IRC is not confirmed.

[urabus-denoS2000]

Almost forgot ;)

www.marcozannier.it (http://www.marcozannier.it)

[Helstar]

Go go Zannier :D

[Tom206wrc]

This smells more and more bad for ABARTH's future if Basso is looking at Skoda :s

[Mirek]

Basso received some other offers already a long time a go but he wishes to stay with Abarth if it's possible.

[Tom206wrc]

Looks like Marco Signor is becoming Ucci's teammate at CIR in the Racing Lions team :confused:


I so much wish Travaglia to become Ucci's teammate after what he did in private 207(and also in Grande Punto and Fabia) :(

[Ucci]

The final act of last year all Italian rally championships and cups (CIR, TRA, TRT, Coppa Italia....) was selection of the best rally driver and the greatest young hope (Il Personaggio dell Rally 2009). And the winner is, surprisingly, but no less deserved-Elwis Chentre ! Second is Luca Pedersoli (both-him and Elwis were regular drivers with WRC cars in TRA), this is a good indication that rally fans still love these types of cars most. Only third is Paolo Andreucci as a winner of CIR 2009 (and is definitely a much better driver as Elwis or Luca...).
The biggest hope among young drivers is from San Marino-Alex Raschi.

[Jarek Z]

Very strange! I don't thin Pedersoli's results were so good last year...

[urabus-denoS2000]

Don't forget that Pedersoli is by far the most attractive driver in Italy, so if that's some of the criteria I'm not surprised


About Pede... :D

http://img163.imageshack.us/img163/4160/xm34eg.jpg

[Raven]

Any news regarding Fiat rally future? In CIR their, now half-official, team will be run by Trico.
It's sad that the first real S2000 car is on the edge and almost falling...

[Tom206wrc]

Ronde Val d'Orcia this sunday, with 5 S2000 cars(Broccoli, Batistini, Ciuffi, Zanchi and Piccolotto) ;)

[Jarek Z]

Any news regarding Fiat rally future? In CIR their, now half-official, team will be run by Trico.
It's sad that the first real S2000 car is on the edge and almost falling...

I agree it's so sad, especially that they have two such great drivers - Basso and Rossetti... On Autoklub.pl thay said it is possible for Basso to do a CIR/ERC programme, but nothing is confirmed. Too bad there's no official FIAT team anymore :(

And as far as Pede is concerned, I met him in 2004 (the 306 Maxi days) and made a great interview. Too bad he ended his professional career... Now he drives just for fun, but still - all the best for him! :up:

[urabus-denoS2000]

He drives preety good ;)

If he wouldn't so much time on attractiveness he could easily be on the pace of Chentre.Luckily , for him the fans come on first place ;)

[atsiotras79]

Rumours here in Greece say that "Papajim" will do 6 gravel events in Italy next year! I am really happy about that if it happens!

And Aris Vovos will appear in some Italian events this year and probably with new car!

[HaCo]

Would be great to see Basso in ERC again. Pitty there is little interest for this championship.

[tolis]

And Aris Vovos will appear in some Italian events this year and probably with new car!
Which car will he probably use??? :p

[superbolide]

Who drive in 207 in the Italian championnant 2010? :)

[Jarek Z]

Paolo Andreucci will drive 207 S2000 in the official Peugeot Italia team. I don't know about any other drivers.

[atsiotras79]

Which car will he probably use??? :p

Maybe Fabia....

[Tom206wrc]

Without surprise Alex Broccoli just won the Ronde Val d'Orcia, but Finn Arminen won the GrN(2nd overall)with weak margin over Carta(both in Subarus Sti) !!! :D

[Tom206wrc]

Luca Cantamessa(Cantaluka)in a Grande Punto S2000 this week-end at the Ronde di Andora ;)

His main contenders will be Gioachino Corona(GP S2000) and Alessio Pisi(207 S2000)

[urabus-denoS2000]

Also 11 FA7 Clios entered so without any WRCs we might see a podium finish ;)

[PLuto]

Franco Ballerini died today during Rally Ronde di Larciano (http://www.autosport.cz/clanek.php?cl=9859) :(

[Tom206wrc]

;( condolences to Franco's family and friends :(

[Ucci]

R.I.P Franco.....

[Francis44]

Rest In Peace Franco Ballerini.

[Motorsportfun]

RIP Franco "Ballero" Ballerini

[Helstar]

So sad... :(

[urabus-denoS2000]

RIP

[pettersolberg29]

I don't know Franco, but it is so sad that these tragedies can still happen in rallying. His friends and family should be proud of his courage as a rally driver - it isn't safe and requires a lot of skill and courage. RIP Franco and all the best to his family and friends.

[Mirek]

Really sad news :(

The car doesn't look extremely damaged. For sure the driver's compartment is untouched. It reminds me a bit a crash of Aghini when his co-driver died few years a go. They say Franco died later in hospital, so it probably wasn't because of broken neck (a question of using HANS), so probably some internal injury, maybe not enough fastened seat belts. For sure strange...

From news: http://iltirreno.gelocal.it/multimedia/home/22917922

[pino]

Very sad news :(

R.I.P Franco

[Wim_Impreza]

Bad news. He was not only a co-driver, but also a great cyclist. R.I.P. Franco.

[urabus-denoS2000]

He was the selector of the Italian national cyclist team

R.I.P.

[Jarek Z]

New car for... Gianfranco Cunico and Luigi Pirollo! :up:

http://www.autoklub.pl/media/201002/26941-cunico.jpg

[Jarek Z]

According to Autoklub.pl Basso will stay with Fiat and Travaglia is in negotiations with Ford. Good luck! Ford has great history in Italian rallying. Anybody remembers the Martini-backed Jolly Club Escorts?

[Barreis]

Aghini was in.. Remember him on 1000 Miglia SSS 1997 when he kicked concrete barrier with that ford..

[sal]

Malcolm himself drove one of the Martini cars in San Remo. Which team is being linked with a Fiesta programme?

[Jarek Z]

I have no clue which team is in question here. I think it is still too early. However, I keep my fingers crossed for Travaglia, one of my favourite Italian drivers.

Didn't know Aghini was driving Ford. When I think of those great Jolly Club Escorts from the nineties, I always see Cunico...

http://www.francocunico.it/rally_driver/WebGFX/Archivio/1996/3.jpg

[urabus-denoS2000]

It is the Motus team,official

With the Motus team,probably Travaglia and Scandola

Also Michelini with an A-Style Fiesta ;)

CIR is going to be very interesting ;)

[Barreis]

Maybe You're right.. I was in Bergamo watching 1000 Miglia rally that 1997 on RAI TV and was live SSS.. What a days.. :)

[urabus-denoS2000]

http://www.fordfiestarallyteam.it/

[Jarek Z]

Maybe You're right.. I was in Bergamo watching 1000 Miglia rally that 1997 on RAI TV and was live SSS.. What a days.. :)

I have just checked that Aghini was driving the ESSO backed Toyota Celica GT-Four on 1997 Mille Miglia Rally. Take a look yourself:
http://www.rallybase.nl/index.php?type=result&rallyid=1328

So it must have been someone else who hit a wall on SS1. It doesn't resemble Aghini to crash on the first stage :)

[Barreis]

I agree.. It was right rear..

[Raven]

It is the Motus team,official
With the Motus team,probably Travaglia and Scandola

Why Scandola again finds a team? He always crashes, so it's a waste of money and car...
It should be Perico, Perego, Gamba, Dati or even CantaLuca...

[Ucci]

I haven't found anything official about drivers for Ford Italia ! Just speculations for now...About drivers: at the moment are in Italy at least five, six young, very promising drivers without contract-Michelini, Medici, Gamba, Ceccoli, Broccoli, Scandola....and a bit older too(Cantamesa, Bizzari), so antyhing can happen...But Travaglia should deserve a seat in Fiesta S2000, that is 100% correct!

[Raven]

I know it's only a rumour and I hope that is only true in 50% (Travaglia). I forgot about Bizzarii, he was fast in his Clio S1600. What is he doing right now? He was not active in CIR 2009?

I found out he was driving Clio R3 in TRA.

[Ucci]

Stefano Bizzari won last year Clio R3 Trophe in Italy!!

[Jarek Z]

Stefano Bizzarri is already a rally veteran, I think he is about 40 years old, so it will be difficult for him to find a good team. But I agree, he is a great driver, I remember him from 2006 in this white and green Clio S1600!
http://rallyonline.pl:84/ft.php?idg=1428&pg_[go]=10

[urabus-denoS2000]

Ucci: Michelini is confirmed in an A-Style Fiesta ;)

About 47..

[Mirek]

Piero Longhi splitted with Aimont Racing. He will drive Peugeot from Twister Corse!

[Raven]

So, Skoda is free?
Ucci still in official Peugeot, Rossetti and Basso in Abarth, Cunico in Fiat, Travaglia is talking with Ford, Longhi in Peugeot, Cantamessa is (???) with private Peugeot... all the big names are already taken?

[Mirek]

Yes, it looks like Skoda Italia can forget title ambitions on their home soil. In the moment they have programs in IRC and Hungary only afaik.

[Raven]

] In the moment they have programs in IRC and Hungary only afaik.
You forgot about Poland.

[Mirek]

Skoda Italia in Poland?

[morganmilan]

]Yes, it looks like Skoda Italia can forget title ambitions on their home soil. In the moment they have programs in IRC and Hungary only afaik.
Which driver is signed in Hungary?

Thnx Ondra :)

[Raven]

]Skoda Italia in Poland?
No, I meant Skoda in general :) I donk't know who will be preparing the car(s?). Maybe Kuzaj's team.

[Mirek]

I thought Kuzaj himself ;) There is a lot of local Skoda teams, I was speaking about Skoda Italia particularly.

[Tom206wrc]

]Piero Longhi splitted with Aimont Racing. He will drive Peugeot from Twister Corse!

:bounce:
Obviously good news to me :p :


Edit: but bad news to me, Abarth with Rox and Basso TWO reliable and fast drivers :mark:

[Ucci]

Today Abarth published officialy their drivers for CIR 2010-both Basso and Rossetti will be the strongest duel in this attractive championship. Grande Punto S2000 may not be a good rival against 207&Fabia&Fiesta's in IRC or SWRC, but on their home soil the story is quite opposite. Especialy as their closest rival Andreucci is running with Pirellis and we all know, Pirelli is slower tyre in hot conditions against BFs, so that Punto with two fast drivers will definitely stole points from Paolo Andreucci.
Thank god for gravel races-there is Andreucci the one and the only, without competition.....
However, we should have in consider, that this year Abarth participation is yust a semi-factory project: Trico Motorsport will take care on logistics and service.

[Mirek]

It used to be that way for a long time. Just Procar or Grifone is changed for Trico.

[Ucci]

]It used to be that way for a long time. Just Procar or Grifone is changed for Trico.
True, but you can not compare Trico to Grifone&Procar, as they are a very experienced teams, with a long history, a lot of international wins...I heard for Trico yust in conjunction with Marko Bernardeli and Travaglia drove G.Punto from this team on a few races, but with no bigger success (compared to P207, which he rented later by Friulimotors).

[Mirek]

That's true but it also depends on the support they will have from Abart. We'll see ;)

[RS]

Any chances to see Basso/Rossetti (& Andreucci) on Sardinia, even though that is part of TRT and not CIR?

[RS]

Thank god for gravel races-there is Andreucci the one and the only, without competition.....


Rossetti is pretty handy on gravel too, but I believe the Punto is not as good on gravel as it is on (smooth) asphalt,

[Ondra WRC]

[Ucci]

Piero Longhi test Peugeot 207 S2000 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgSxN7wxQkc&feature=player_embedded#at=269

Grande Pierino !!!
Watching this short video I'm surprised the way Longhi breaks-with his right foot!!! Isn't this an old-fashion way?? Or he uses this technique yust on circuits...
Nevertheless I'm happy for him-he has a top-car, behind him stands a very professional team, with a lot of experience, there is no doubt about his driving skills, so he will be able to attack Andreucci&Co....

[urabus-denoS2000]

Heh,I dont agree

He had a top car last year and also this year.I am starting to doubt his skills (better to say age) ;)

[Barreis]

Maybe he's better in traditional (subaru) N4..

[Tom206wrc]

Well in France Julien Maurin had difficulties in the Skoda and was better in the Pug last year...so why not the same for Longhi ??? :p :

[Ucci]

Heh,I dont agree

He had a top car last year and also this year.I am starting to doubt his skills (better to say age) ;)
About Longhi-Skoda Fabia S2000, few facts:
1. Before he made a debute with Fabia, he was sitting at home, doing nothing for more than half year, his competition was all the time behind the whell
2. Fabia was in the early stage of development (better not to think, how much informations got Andreucci from Peugeot Sport)
3. He did not drive a non-turbo car for more than ten years
4. He won his seecond race with Fabia-gravel rally around San Crispino (with some luck, Ucci had troubles, but victory is victory)

So, this is a short interpretation of story Longhi-Fabia. About his years: almost all top Italian drivers are about the same years: Andreucci, Travaglia, Longhi.
A bit younger generation are: Navarra, Cantamessa, Basso, Rossetti, Cavallini...
After those two groups the young guns are behind them, but generaly much to slow against veterans....
Yes, this year we will see the return of one true Italian legend-Franco Cunico-after he won easily last year Italian IRC with Focus WRC07, this year he will compete in CIR with privately enterd Punto S2000 (D'Ambra). And he is 53 years old, so Longhi is almost a young man compare to him...And I bet, Franco will stand on the winning stairs this season for many times. Old guy did not forget how to drive....

[Barreis]

It seems that Italians are not that inerested for entering into WRC.. It's so strong championship in Italy with more then 150 rallies per year.. :)

[Mirek]

I don't agree with point 2. The car was fully developped and already a winning car by that time. In my opinion he just didn't have enough testing. Another not mentioned and also important issue is that he used Pirelli tyres.

[Jarek Z]

Well in France Julien Maurin had difficulties in the Skoda and was better in the Pug last year...so why not the same for Longhi ??? :p :

Let's not compare those two drivers. Maurin should be cleaning Longhi's shoes (if he is lucky) ;)

[Jarek Z]

It seems that Italians are not that inerested for entering into WRC.. It's so strong championship in Italy with more then 150 rallies per year.. :)

If I were an Italian driver, I would do exactly the same. Italy is full of fantastic rallies. Current WRC is only about money, not talent and passion.

[urabus-denoS2000]

Ucci , u pravu si ;)

Why would they bother in the WRC? :D

[Tom206wrc]

Next week-end is the Rally di Carnevale ;)

[urabus-denoS2000]

Novikov is very close to a deal with team Motus to drive their Fiesta for full CIR and some IRC rallys ;)

[PLuto]

We will see, but this info is "travelling" through italian forums from Sunday. I dont know if it is true or not, but I have heard some rumours he was in discussion with A-Style about renting Fiesta...

[Raven]

Novikov in CIR? Tough lessons he will receive...

[RS]

Novikov in CIR? Tough lessons he will receive...

It is what he needs. No use just in choosing a championship because it is easy.

[urabus-denoS2000]

It will be hard for him to finish in top 5,guaranteed ;)

[tolis]

It will be hard for him to finish in top 5,guaranteed ;)
Firstly, he will destroy one or two Fiesta's... :D

[urabus-denoS2000]

Now he is linked to an A-Style Fiesta... We just have to wait for the official release

[Ondra WRC]

So go Novikov CIR Fiesta with A-Style, but it still is not officially?

[Ucci]

Manuel Sossella has confirmed his participation at Italian IRC championship. He will drive Subaru Impreza WRC08 S14.
I think, this is ex-car from G.Tosi...definitely a winning car!


http://www.rallylink.it/news/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=9676:new-media-group-manuel-sossella&catid=35:comunicati&Itemid=27

Also in this year championship Silvano Luciani(TAM-AUTO P307 WRC).

Still nothing official but very close to happening ;)

[Wim_Impreza]

Piero Longhi will drive the Peugeot 207 S2000 in the Rally Franciacorta Circuit this weekend. There are 5 WRC's including Luca Pedersoli (206 WRC), 7 S2000's, 6 S1600's, 6 Clio's R3, a Peugeot 306 Maxi and Lancia Delta and 3 GT's, with circuit driver Stefano d'Aste in a Lotus Exige.

I hope Aghini and Navara will find budget and S2000 cars for CIR :(

Skoda Italy?

[Ucci]

Skoda Italy?

As far as I know, Skoda Italy(Aimont) is taking care of Wilks Fabia for IRC. If they will not have another car, than there is no place for any other driver for domestic championship.

[PLuto]

Skoda Italy has two cars. Another question is if they are actually interested in CIR.

[Karbonyl]

They have three Fabias probably.

[teufel]

As far as I know, Skoda Italy(Aimont) is taking care of Wilks Fabia for IRC. If they will not have another car, than there is no place for any other driver for domestic championship.

And they have contract with Herczig in Hungary for the whole championship!

[Ucci]

Some serious rumors emerged, that Andrea Navarra will be the driver of official Ford Fiesta S2000 this year. I keep finger crossed....
The second news has been already confirmed-Elwis Chentre is back in CIR !! He will drive one of the ex-Kronos P207 S2000. Great, only that it will not be such an easy walk as he had last year in the TRA championship.....

[Jarek Z]

Some serious rumors emerged, that Andrea Navarra will be the driver of official Ford Fiesta S2000 this year.

Thanks for the news. Are you talking about the same team as Travaglia? When will it be finally confirmed?

[Tom206wrc]

Chentre in full CIR with S2000 ??? Great :cool:

[muscrae]

So, any photos from 4th Ronde Valtiberina Rally? I'd be glad to see some photos of Volkan Işık with Peugeot 206 WRC... :)

[Ucci]

Thanks for the news. Are you talking about the same team as Travaglia? When will it be finally confirmed?

For the moment nothing is 100% sure...Errepi team bought one Fiesta S2000 and suddenly Navarra was in the game. So, wait for a few days and more informations will be availabe.

http://www.italiaracing.net/newsrally.asp?id=2263&nome=NEWS&cart=RALLY

[Ucci]

Chentre in full CIR with S2000 ??? Great :cool:

Yes, Tom, great indeed!! It is ex-Vouilloz car from last year. Chentre stays with his former team-Vieffecorse.

[urabus-denoS2000]

Marco Zannier was fantastic today in Alto Friuli Ronde :)

4. Turolo Evo IX + 36
5. Zannier Clio R3 +40

Clio FA7 infront of evo9 and R3?!

[Mirek]

It's about the element between the seat and steering wheel. I can imagine Loeb beating me in a double decker bus ;)

[urabus-denoS2000]

What's strange there Barreis?? :D It's an old story in Italy , a 15 year old proper race car in the top ;)


Maby even more impressive is 6th Doretto in an A6 Honda Civic ;)

[Ucci]

As I mentioned few days ago about Andrea Navarra-now it is official. He will drive first Fiesta S2000 in Italy (Ford-Motus Team). The car will come directly from M-Sport. Me as a great fan of Navarra must say, that I'm very happy for him, but still I doubt if he will be a real threat for let say Andreucci, Longhi, Basso, Roxy.....If we look back ten years when Navarra was competing in Italian gravel championship with Impreza WRC, he was unbeatable (multiple champion in this series), his first full season in CIR in 2004 with Aimont-Impreza gr.N was also a big success-he was a champion! Next season with Ralliart Evo 8/9 he was also very good, yust because of technical unreliability he lost the championship crown against Longhi. But then came three years with Abarth G.Punto S2000. First year he was completely lost with the new way of driving, Andreucci was one class faster....In 2007 season in IRC he had yust one win (Safari), other races were average.... Season 2008 again back in CIR, yust one win (Salento) with a help of luck (Rossetti had troubles). Last year back with Subaru Impreza N14-in the middle of the season team decided not to compete anymore in CIR due to lack of competitiveness against S2000 cars....
So, this are the facts about ex-Europe champion, multiple winner of Bettega show....I hope we will find motivation for a new challenge, to shake off the fear on high-speed sections with NA engine and to become a champion !!
Good luck, Andrea !!

Start Ciocco this evening ;)

[Wim_Impreza]

After SS1 of Rally Il Ciocco:
1 Pedersoli (Focus WRC) 5'31"8
2 Cantamessa (Punto S2000) +4"4
3 Re (Xsara WRC) +14"6
4 Vita (Lancer Evo 9) +19"0
5 Pisi (207 S2000) +23"2
6 Odložilík (CZ - Fabia S2000) +23"8
7 Laganà (Lancer Evo 10) +28"0
11 Pasteiner (A - Lancer Evo 9) +33"9

Paolo Ciuffi (Fabia S2000) already retired before the start of SS1. :(

[urabus-denoS2000]

Strong start for Pede ;)

[Mirek]

Even stronger for Cantaluka :)

[urabus-denoS2000]

Was this an SSS or a real stage?

[Tom206wrc]

After three stages of Ciocco Pedersoli still leading but Re was faster by an important margin on the longest stage(SS3) ;)

Cantamessa already strong leading in S2000 I don't understand why Pisi had a so bad time on SS3 :(

[Jarek Z]

After four stages Pede is still leading, 13 seconds before Re. Cantaluka is in a strong third position, Odlozilik is fourth, one minute behind the Italian.

Pede GO! :up:

[RICARDO75]

Pedersoli stil in the lead

[Mirek]

Paolo Ciuffi (Fabia S2000) already retired before the start of SS1. :(

Chiuffi had a serious crash on the road section before SS1. I heard he is in hospital after a crash with some another car.

[Tom206wrc]

One stage left to go(about to start)on the Rally Il Ciocco, and I don't see the victory escaping from Pedersoli, but the championship is long, Re can win other events ;)

[Jarek Z]

Pedersoli wins Ciocco, 15 seconds in front of Re. Cantamessa is third and Odlozilik fourth. The winner of group N is the veteran driver Gianluca Vita, I didn't even know he is still active.

Thanks for this news Mirek. I wish Ciuffi a good recovery.

[Ucci]

First race in a new car and already a victory-Pedersoli suprised me, I must admit. Unexpected defeat for Felice Re, some relief for him is a superb victory of his son Alex Re as he won the R2B class.Cantamessa as expected first in S2000, with a big advantage (do not forget, Cantamessa is still one of the best Italian drivers, he was many times on the podium in CIR).
In one month-Valle'd Aosta, I hope Felice will revenge for this defeat...

[urabus-denoS2000]

I'm not really surprised , I rate Pedersoli higher than Re ;)

Same as me!

Start of the "S2000 cup" of the Ronde del Grifo soon :p :

You can better say that it is a Peugeot S2000 cup: 11 Peugeot's and only 1 Fiat.

Where did you hear that? There are no date clashes with IRC.

Funny that Skoda Italy have to bring in a Czech driver for their home championship but Kopecky is an excellent choice. Remember he was fastest on SS1 of Sanremo 2009 before he had his accident!

This will also make Jan an even better tarmac driver than he already is.

Arminen good leading after three stages of Conca d'Oro :eek:
And what fight for second position between Bruschetta, Dedo, Trentin, Isik, Ceccoli and Dati :D


Edit: but GrNs better than S2000s here ??? :mark:

Fantastic drive by Kubica at Rally del Taro with an 8th position overall(largely leading the 2WDs) :cool:
Overall, Sossella(Subaru)wins ahead of Sora(Ford)and Luciani(Peugeot)...S2000 win for Capelli ahead of Cortinovis and Federici

Wow, looks agressive! Really nice driving, I was rather suspecting racing style.

[Ucci]

94.Targa Florio : deserved victory for a local driver Toto Riolo (Xsara WRC)!!
Fight for a second place between Felice Re and Luca Pedersoli was a real horror: at the end Felice Re was faster by 0,1 second!!!! Good for Felice, I'm very, very happy for him and Mara Bariani!!
Fourth place: Alfonso''Fofo'' di Benedetto, he also took the advantage of local knowledge and was faster than Alesio Pisi (both in P207 S2000).
Son of great Felice Re-Alex Re won again class R2B!! Well done, family Re!!

[Tom206wrc]

Next week Rally Adriatico(gravel)second round of CIR...Forza Ucci and Travaglia :bounce: :bounce:

[Tom206wrc]

Yep sorry, Adriatico in next week in fact ;)

[stepunk]

Entry list for Rally Adriatico, second round of Italian Championship and third of Gravel Trophy: http://www.prsgroup.it/adriatico_2010/pdf/iscritti.pdf
23 S2000, not bad!

[Tom206wrc]

Fantastic...23 S2000 on gravel of Adriatico :eek:
GrNs especially with Timo Arminen are very serious opponents, strange that Perico or Ceccoli usually driving Mitsus on gravel have chosen S2000s this time :confused:

Ford arriving with two serious drivers, Scandola and Navarra ;)

Anyway, UCCI will beat them all again :D :cool:

[Jarek Z]

Amazing entry list! I also expect another win from Ucci, because he is magic! :)
