[ERC] 31. Int. Janner Rallye 2014 (03.-05.01.2014):

[Jarek Z]

Aigner disappointing so far. I hope he can get used to the car by the end of the rally and start to push a bit more.

Something must be wrong with Tlustak as well. After SS3 he is down in 25th position behind 2WD cars of Bohm and Bessenyey.

[Jarek Z]

Baumschlager is the new leader after SS4!

[dimviii]

old fox takes lead with bad pirelli tyres...

[WUff1]

No good stage for Polish fans ...

[Mirek]

Everything upside down after second run of Pierbach. What a stage it is! Baumschlager even with a penalty moves from 4th to 1st!

Kubica with a puncture.

[Mirek]

old fox takes lead with bad pirelli tyres...

Pirelli has been always perfect in cold wet conditions which is probably the case now. Also the tyres he has a completely new never used by anyone before (I think).

Besseney stopped - doesn´t look to good.

[Sulland]

Anything special that happened to Consani on SS1?
Spin?

[Fast Eddie WRC]

So 4 stages gone and 3 different winners in 3 different types of car... this is what we want ! :D

Close competition and variety ... ERC 2014 will be great if this continues. :lips:

[Fast Eddie WRC]

Great to see Marcus Gronholm involved with the ERC:

[WUff1]

I´ll expect Baumschlager to storm ahead of the others on SS 5 and 6 - no or just very little (on SS6) ice there anymore and therefore no studs seem the right choice.

Kajto said that "we need to be smart" at the end of the last stage... is it me or everytime somebody say that kind of things, they go off ? real pity :(

[Bartek]

To be honest I never heard so bad coverage by rallyradio....

[WUff1]

OK, I think Baumschlager will win this rally now, if nothing happens to his car - maybe even with a big margin - like in (boring) Austrian championship. Kubica in total seems slower, and Pech doesn´t look like he´ll catch him (priority is scoring for Czech championship).

[dimviii]

pitty for Kajto,now Baumschlager with 9,8 from Pech and 14,3 from Kubica.
Harrach on some stages perfect while on some not good.

It could be that Kubica is taking a new sensible approach and will go on a charge towards the end.

Pity about Katjo.

Pech will have no opposition in Czech championship this year. He can risk it and he said he will if the margin won't be too big.

Anyway I would say it's too early for conclusions. A lot of stages to come and a number of them in the darkness.

Still a very long way to go and Pech & Kubica within 14s of the lead... real pity about Kajto though.. :rolleyes:

Yes, the reason of Kajto's retirement was a locked throttle. The information abot his crash was only a rumour. Such a pity that Kjto had to withdraw from the rally!

This is the most famous place of the rally on Pierbach stage. Looks easy but it always catches drivers! Valoušek or Tarabus retired there in the past too. Even Hänninen or Baumschlager made spins there :)

[SS7] Pregarten 1
Raimund BAUMSCHLAGER (SKODA)
"I change (the gearbox) but I think it was not right. We are losing too much because we do not have enough power, that is my feeling and the time shows me this now. We lost 10-seconds and that is a lot."

Rally is wide-open now ...

[Jarek Z]

Meanwhile we have a new stage winner. Pech wins SS7.

But it was just a 9km-stage. The next one is 22 km long. That can be interesting.

[PLuto]

Info about locked throttle is from co-driver but we must wait for official info

It should be locked throttle and crash because of that... But it is confirmed that left rear of the car is damaged.

Love how the rally evolves... pitty about Katjo for such a small problem :(

[Mirek]

Meanwhile we have a new stage winner. Pech wins SS7.

But it was just a 9km-stage. The next one is 22 km long. That can be interesting.

The stage had average speed 121 km/h... also with less and less visibility I guess that Mundl will slightly loose. At least all our older drivers complain they can't see in the dark...

[HaCo]

Waiting for Kubica :-)

[Mirek]

I just watched onboard of Hudec from SS5 Liebenau 2. In places it was like a gravel stage, looots of dirt everywhere. Also he had some three offs on those ten kilometers :D

Seems that Kubica has matured and learnt from past mistakes from what he is saying! Hopefully this will continue through 2014.

[Mirek]

Kubica back in the lead and Harrach close to Tarabus. More to come tomorrow :)

[RS]

Kubica takes the lead. I think he can control it now but there is still a long way to go.

No ;) But happy about the development.

Consani also came very close to Neubauer on SS 10 with problems of the latter.

Curious how Tarabus will fight Harrach´s attacks tomorrow, and if Baumi still could strike back - and who will use which tyres on the first loop.

Odložilík's Fiesta is PX13 ATK re-reggistered?

It was a really great rally day today. Nobody who was out at the stages today will ever say, that Jänner Rallye without snow is boring. It's really a shame, that Kajto retired today. Looking forward for tomorrow.

Harrach said for autosport.cz after SS6:


Fourth stage wasn't very good for us as we lost a lot because of studs. We removed them on the road section, it was a lot of work but it worthed it. We made a really good time on the last stages so that our confidence grew a lot.

This is what rules say:


60.7 HAND CUTTING
The intentional modification of the design of the tyre or the number of studs on the tyres on or in the car is strictly forbidden.

It's not the first time with Harrach on Jänner but somehow he always gets away with that.

PS Please note that the quotation of Harrach is my own translation of Czech text as I don't have the original available in the moment. Source: http://www.autosport.cz/clanek.php?cl=15956

[HarriK]

Maybe he just reved up engine and lost that way all the studs ;)

Well, this is from the official Commentary Feed from fiaerc.com...


Sat 14:07 [SS6] St. Oswald 2
Beppo HARRACH (MITSUBISHI)
Pulled as many studs out of the tyres as he could before starting the stage

Nevertheless, I like the guy. His onboards with Evo IX R4 on tarmac are incredible (and that's an understatement).

[Mad cat jnr]

The tyre rules where changed just for this rally on Friday.

[Juha_Koo]

The tyre rules where changed just for this rally on Friday.

Tyre rules regarding homologation were changed, not rules regarding the 60.7.

Here's the rule change:
CoC Communication 1: http://www.jaennerrallye.at/fileadmin/u ... m%2001.pdf (http://www.jaennerrallye.at/fileadmin/user_upload/ftp/CoC%20Comm%2001.pdf)
The list of homologated tyres by the FIA: http://www.fia.com/sites/default/files/ ... .12.13.pdf (http://www.fia.com/sites/default/files/regulation/file/2014%20Asphalt%20Tyre%20FIA%20eligibility_20.12.13 .pdf)

To my understanding, 60.7 still applies (it has not been repealed).

[Mirek]

The tyre rules where changed just for this rally on Friday.

As Juha said, not this rule.

[Sulland]

What tyres is Aigner on this year, is he still on Yoko, or is he on a brand that is not registered, since it does not show on the lists on Eurosport?

[bluuford]

This is the rule that is almost impossible to control. You can always remove studs with heavy braking and accelerating on tarmac or gravel road. So, who says he took it out manually? Who says he was not joking;-) It is very difficult to follow. Therefore, I find that this rule must be delated and it will be equal for everyone.

[Mirek]

You are right but at least he should have not spoken like that...

Anyway in this short highlight video You can find big moments of Aigner and Tarabus: http://www.fiaerc.com/videogallery/deta ... A-END-LEG1 (http://www.fiaerc.com/videogallery/detail/id_event/14/id/306/t/ERC-AUSTRIA-END-LEG1)

What tyres is Aigner on this year, is he still on Yoko, or is he on a brand that is not registered, since it does not show on the lists on Eurosport?

Yoko according to rally radio!

About Harrach, I understood it as he did it manually, he said it was hard work to get them out...

[GigiGalliNo1]

Why does Kubica have No#1 on side of car? Who will have 1 at next ERC round?

[Mirek]

I think that seeding is still up to organizers in the ERC as there are no driver registrations. There are only FIA priorities which say who must be seeded in the first group. Starting order is than done according to the qualification stage.

[WUff1]

This was issued after Harrach´s interview on SS6: http://www.jaennerrallye.at/fileadmin/u ... m%2004.pdf (http://www.jaennerrallye.at/fileadmin/user_upload/ftp/CoC%20Comm%2004.pdf)


Baumschlager seems to have given up the fight for the moment (and complaining about technical issues and tyres) - seems like a replay of last year, where he also was fighting for top on the first day, on the second day he fell back, maybe thinking about scoring points for Austrian championship. But the rally is still very long and anything can happen - and "Mundl" is an old fox.

EDIT: Harrach already smelling Tarabus´s exhaust fumes after SS 12 ... just 4,6 sec left between these two.

[Mirek]

Pech back in the lead!

[dupanton]

Jump start for Kubica... Fight might be over...

[Mirek]

Sure not ;) SS17/18 Bad Zell is really hard, long and crazy fast stage where everything may change (like it did in the past).

[Ucci]

Pushkar rolled.

Great time by Neubauer! Leading production cup :smokin:
Pushkar didn't roll his car, he just hit one stone while he lost control on the famous hairpins at the end of stage 1.I was there personally....and a lot of other drivers were cought by the ice on this part of the stage.

[Mirek]

I know, I watched the video later too but the first official information was that he rolled....

[WUff1]

Jump start for Kubica... Fight might be over...

If both drivers keep their speed of the first three stages today, I´d agree. Pech has got the advantage of knowing the roads very well too - he won already 3 times here ...

[HaCo]

Nice battle!

[RS]

Impressed by Pech!

His Mini is also much more entertaining to watch and to listen to than the Fiesta RRC.

Is Pech pretty much the only person left using a Mini with any success?

[vino_93]

Luis Monzon is Spain has success too.

[Ucci]

As I few minutes ago wrote down-I was yesterday watching in live (SS1/4 and 7) and first shock was how slippery it was in the morning. Everything coverd by the ice, almost impossible to walk....Second shock came as how many spectators were there already on the first stage...Later in the day ice melted.
I must say I'm very surprised over Kubica's pace, with his limited knowledge&experience on this tricky conditions....what a driver !!

And yes, nobody can say that a dry Jänner is boring. I enjoyed it every single second. Plus, it is much easier for spectators....

[WUff1]

Impressed by Pech!

His Mini is also much more entertaining to watch and to listen to than the Fiesta RRC.

Is Pech pretty much the only person left using a Mini with any success?

In the start (until 2012) he also suffered from many technical problems with his Mini. Very hard technical work by his team together with Prodrive in autumn 2012 brought a change.

The crash was in 5-th gear if I'm seeing right, very heavy impact on the left side. I'm hearing from Kajto " Gas, gas " maybe relating to the problem with the gas pedal?

According to Pluto Odložilík today suffered problems with stuck throttle too.

Baumschlager said yesterday that he had no softest Pirelli tyres available but only harder ones.

[Mirek]

Glachs is doing good today with the outdated Polo S2000. Pity he retired so early yesterday.

[WUff1]

Yes, he´s doing really well today. His stage times today are some kind of dignified farewell for team manager Dr. Cezkal (he´s the doctor of my father) who´s retiring from rally sport after this rally and a succesful car in Austrian rally sport.

A little linguistic help from a Polish friend :)

!!! BOOM !!!

Kajto: Gas was locked!
Baran: Oh, what could I do in the corner, oh, what could I do?! Oh, f...ck!
Kajto: Are you OK?
Baran: Yes, I'm OK, I'm OK.

[Bartek]

I'm very sad about Kajto, to be honest RK have full season in WRC and for Kajto that first 2 rallies are very important. Big talent and I hope Lotos will secure full season ERC for him.

Jarek was faster :)

agree with you 100%.

weather has worsened in rally area - now fog is thicker, and rain coming from the south, already raining southwest of Freistadt. So it´s not sure if this loop can be finished in dry weather, with first run of (in)famous Aisttal-stage ...

[Jarek Z]

I'm very sad about Kajto, to be honest RK have full season in WRC and for Kajto that first 2 rallies are very important. Big talent and I hope Lotos will secure full season ERC for him.


That's true. Lotos have already wasted so much money on Kosciuszko. This year they finally invested in a proper driver and it ended like this. Very sad.

[dimviii]

Harrach hit a tree :( and lost about 25 seconds
very good performance so far with an outdated car.

[WUff1]

Kubica lost another 2,3 sec against Pech on first 2 stages of this loop. Victory for Pech is getting nearer ...

[Fast Eddie WRC]

Really enjoying this close battle and great to have a MINI driver in with a chance of a major win ! :)

Excellent experience for Kubica with the Monte coming up and good to see him not going off trying too hard ... ;)

Excellent experience for Kubica with the Monte coming up and good to see him not going off trying too hard ... ;)

But almost...

[dimviii]

:skull:

[WUff1]

Glachs retired again ...

And now I´m convinced Pech will win this rally (if he stays on the road without a bigger mistake or nothing technical happens). Kubica is loosing more and more time - and he doesn´t seems to go for an attack anymore (after SS 16: "It´s ok, it´s a good test").

[Mirek]

Harrach hit a tree :( and lost about 25 seconds
very good performance so far with an outdated car.

It's not yet decided. The last two stages especially if rain and fog comes there can change anything. We saw that in the past ;)

By the way new interesting onboards (use Czech proxy again)

Pech SS10 (with two big moments, also notice the speedometer on the dashboard, some corners in around 190 km/h are crazy).

Tarabus looses half a minute to Harrach as he complains about broken differential!

[dupanton]

Beppo is crazy!!

[wwbroe]

What a time for Beppo Harrach, average speed 111 km/h :eek:

[HaCo]

Kubica has had a lot of almost moments this rally.

Here's one more:
https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=719554844732120

Hope he can develop as a WRC driver, they normally come and take victory (thinking of Hirvonen, Ogier in the past).

[WUff1]

Aisttal shows what it is infamous for ...

Will Tarabus, Aigner and Odlozilik be able to solve their technical problems before last run?

Kubica just won 2 seconds ...

[dimviii]

What a time for Beppo Harrach, average speed 111 km/h :eek:

this guy is definetely man of the rally.While fighting everybody for the win,he is among them.

[Juha_Koo]

I hope someone publishes Harrach onboard from SS17, that time is just crazy... :eek:

[WUff1]

Think he´ll get Colin McRae trophy again - him or Pech.

[WUff1]

Baumschlager said in an audio interview with a local newspaper, that he was already driving on the limit yesterday evening and on the first loop today, and he lost some confidence because of his tyres - he was not able to stay within reach of Kubica and even more Pech, even if he would have liked to.

[Mirek]

Pluto just informed that Pech took slicks, others mostly winter tyres for the last stage.

[WUff1]

Kubica with studs on the front tyres ... we´ll see if this decision was right.

[HaCo]

Exciting first rally of the season! :bounce:

[Mirek]

Baumschlager takes PS win for Austrian championship.

[WUff1]

Slicks for Pech seem to have been the wrong decision maybe.

EDIT: What a final!! Kubica won!

[thuGG]

Wooohoooo! :D

[Mirek]

Kubica won! Same situation like last year with Kopecký and Bouffier and on the same stage!

What a time :eek:

[dimviii]

imho Kubica can do it.Pech with not so good time.

[Kalm]

wow, Kubica :O loved his first words : "it was ok " :D

[Juha_Koo]

Kubica -31,7 to Pech, Kubica wins! What a rally! :)

[WUff1]

Unbelievable .... 30 sec ...

[WUff1]

It was even more dramatic than last year .... and we had 4 different leaders of the rally!

[dimviii]

congrats to Kubica!
at same stage ss17 they had only 2 seconds difference,now 32 seconds.Pech lost it with his choice.
nice rally!

[dupanton]

What a time by Kubica, big respect!!

[Dejan]

Pluto just informed that Pech took slicks, others mostly winter tyres for the last stage.

What were they thinking to choose slicks for wet, mud roads??

[rage82]

Congrats to Robert, his first win in ERC! Respect for him, very emotional explanation at the end, especially the excuse for the co-driver about the moment in the last stage!

[Fast Eddie WRC]

Wow... just wow !

Didn't expect that.. great win by Kubica.

Superb start to his season with the Ford & M-Sport :D

[Mirek]

According to radio Robert decided to put the tyres crossed on the road section. If I heard well...

[dimviii]

Pluto just informed that Pech took slicks, others mostly winter tyres for the last stage.

availability of tyres?

[Bartek]

Robert did the same thing like Beppo yesterday. Big win!

I'm not sure but he head 2 studs in front and 2 winter in rear

BTW. Yesterday it was first crash for Kajto from 6 years : Source Kajto in Polish eurosport

[thuGG]

Winters on rear, studded crossed winters on front.

[Mirek]

By the way the same last stage... always massive gaps there so drama granted ;)

2011
1. Harrach
2. Baumschlager +13,3

2012
1. Hänninen
2. Harrach +18,3

2013
1. Kopecký
2. Bouffier +11,1

2014
1. Kubica
2. Baumschlager +23,0

[WUff1]

Kubica has learnt a lot compared to his ERC appearances last year. And he seems to be a champion of understatement, too.

[WUff1]

....

BTW. Yesterday it was first crash for Kajto from 6 years : Source Kajto in Polish eurosport

Shame that it happened exactly on Jänner Rallye - would have been an interesting duel between him and Kubica ... hope he can continue his ERC plans, in an audio interview yesterday he said he´s not sure about his next start in ERC.

[WUff1]

By the way the same last stage... always massive gaps there so drama granted ;)

...

2012
1. Hänninen
2. Harrach +18,3

and and addition for 2012:

3. Harrach and 4. Baumschlager +17,6 sec on last stage Aisstal ;)

watch the last video at fiaerc at 1,28(big cut for RK)

[HaCo]

Very nice, congrats to RK! Will be VERY good experience for him for the Monte! Hope he can keep his fords on the limit and not over it!

Great season opener!

[makinen_fan]

Very nice to see a great rally from RK! I was not expecting it in the last stage to be so much faster. Hope he keeps on pushing in WRC and develop into a serious contender.

Also I found it interesting in last nights review when he commented how easier is to drive the Fiesta compared to the DS3!

[Mirek]

Also I found it interesting in last nights review when he commented how easier is to drive the Fiesta compared to the DS3!

Tomáš Kostka and I believe also Thierry Neuville said the same - that Fiesta is easy to drive and very forgiving car while DS3 is very sharp car which punishes every mistake.

[Raven]

Great event, thriller right to the end and Kubica on the highest step of the podium. What could be batter? Maybe Kajetanowicz a winner, this would be more useful for him.
Also the tv coverage is not bad so far, nice to see Marcus in ERC outfit. Is this only one time performance or we will se him more often?

Once more, great beginning of ERC season and it could be even better with more drivers still waiting to join up.

[Ucci]

I'm speechless ! Robert-deep respect. This result is epic. Nobody can't argue that.
I hope, that all who still do not believe in RK, are now convinced of their mistake.
Watch out for him at MC....

[stefanvv]

Congratulations to Kubica. I believe he will have better results with Ford.

[focus206]

what in the world was Pech thinking with that choice of tires? You would expect one to defend to lead with 1 SS to go, not to gamble like that... anyone knows any reason behind that? :s
Anyway, congrats to Kubica, good events and especially without mistakes. Great rally also for Harrach, I hope he'll do less mistaked in this year's Austrian Championship and be closer to Baumschlager :)

[Jarek Z]

Kubica has had a lot of almost moments this rally.

That's why he won it ;)
I'm sure the last stage was full of them too ;)

[Jarek Z]

Sure not ;) SS17/18 Bad Zell is really hard, long and crazy fast stage where everything may change (like it did in the past).

I officially give you the award "Prophet of the rally", you should be proud! :D

He said for Czech media that it was his personal choice. He said he expected soft tyre to be better for the conditions according to the experience from first run. He said he also drove quite bad in the last one.

By the way in the rally radio they said Harrach was also on softs and he was even faster than Pech, so...

[dimviii]

Question to Robert Kubica
Can you explain your tyre choice for the final stage and talk us through your drive on the stage?
RK: “I have no experience to be honest. I did see a few things yesterday and today on the stages. The only real tyre test we did was in France last week when it was raining, so similar conditions. But then I added here the Tarmac was more slippery, I was often aquaplaning in the loop before on slicks, we were driving in the night and there would be a lot of mud and my choice would be for snow tyres because we have no wet tyre. But we couldn’t use four tyres because we would be out of the tyre limit for the rally so we decided to put two stud tyres and two snow tyres and it worked out very well. But it hasn’t been an easy stage because there was a lot of fog and I clipped one of the wood sticks and one of the additional lights went out of the support cover and turned into my face. I knew there was fast section and I was trying to switch it off. But the first thing I started searching the button like it was the Citroën but then I realised I’m not any more in Citroën, I am in a Fiesta and then I don’t hear the last pacenotes from Maciej. I saw there was a field, after three times he repeated I hear it but it was too late and we had a big moment and I apologise because it was not nice. It shouldn’t happen but it’s better these things come out now than during the season. We will need to fix because when we are driving in the night I have the buttons on the steering wheel and I couldn’t see anything so we have to do some modifications to help with this. It has been a difficult stage but somehow after two kilometres I knew I had a big advantage so I was just hoping to bring the car to the finish. I was pretty confident the gap would be big enough and so it was the case.”

My summary of Jänner Rallye 2014 – seen from a local fan point of view (watching this rally since 1979 with some exceptions):

Even without Skoda and Peugeot (I think the latter weren´t even expected) a not so bad entry list as first suspected. We had champions from 3 countries and some ERC top drivers too. The absence of Skoda was equalized with M-Sport participating, but this was an one off, as we all know.
The date of the rally will be even more critical in 2015 and 2016, it comes nearer to new years eve one day every year. Finally in 2017 it would be possible to move it away to 6th till 8th january. If Jänner is then still in ERC and MMCR, we´ll see. Maybe some break in the next two years from ERC could be a possibility, who knows.

For fans Jänner is and stays very popular, Rallybase obviously was short from crashing especially on sunday (very long time to load page) – which I never observed before.

And Jänner never is a boring rally where one guy leads from the beginning and wins this rally without hard fighting. This year we saw four different leaders during the rally. Aisttal stages bring some dramatic final every year, with last minute winners and dramatic position changes in the last moment.

The lack of snow became an issue within the last years (in the last 4 years only 2012 was more snow than tarmac), but ice and mud from cutting edges make this rally still very hard for drivers every year. For viewers Jänner is an impressive rally even on tarmac/mud, as I could see these days and as many other specators I talked to stated. Maybe some stages could be done new, at least in parts, so that they aren´t too easy when there is no snow.


My summary of top- and priority drivers at Jänner:

Kubica: very very impressive final, seems to learn tactics now – big improvement compared to his ERC appearances last year. Sad that we won´t get to see him in ERC so soon again – but think he´s a contender of Top Five in WRC this Year
Pech: Also very impressive performance – this year leaving his Austrian rival Baumschlager far behind compared to the last years, when he finished 4th and 5th. Even if he only starts in MMCR, we´ll have to watch him at Barum, where he finished also second in 2013. So he´s an European top driver at any rate.
Baumschlager: A bit dissapointed by his performance, stopped fighting on day two like last year – maybe he gets a bit old slowly?
Harrach: always fights when he´s participating at a rally. His future is uncertain, his sponsor is in financial crisis. He said he´ll do only selected rallies in Austrian championship this year. I don´t understand why he didn´t start with a rented Fiesta, like his teammate Grössing did at one Austrian rally last year. I think he could afford it, his family is a rich and famous one in Austria.
Tarabus: Very good performance, I´d expect him in top ten of every ERC rally he´s doing
Aigner: Very dissapointing start, then slowly consolidating – his future is uncertain too.
Gryazin: solid performance, like in the last ERC rallies he was doing. We´ll hear more from him I suppose
Odlozilik: OK, but probably no danger to Pech in MMCR, even with Tarabus missing this year.
Consani: Good performance, Think 9th place was very important rally for his confidence after his misluck in 2013. Change to an RC2 car was a good decision it seems.
Neubauer: Very good rally – but he´s already used to this car from Austrian championship 2012.
Tlustak: It seems to me he´s always looking for position 9 or 10 and waiting for some drivers in front of him – but at Jänner it doesn´t seem to happen for him. Think this is not his favourite rally.
Kajto: unlucky fellow of the rally – was my tipp for winning and a hard fight with Kubica till the end. Hope he can continue with R5 in ERC, he´d deserve it.
Cerny: No luck for him at Jänner too ... Last year he retired on last stage. Would be a good ERC contender I think, but he obviously lacks the money.

[urabus-denoS2000]

Superb drive from RK, but he was very lucky at the last stage with that moment. As a fan of him as a rally driver since the beginning of his rally career, this (as his first major overall victory) makes me very happy and proud :) Also, great drive from Pech and Harrach, only dissapointment for me was Aigner. I know he had technical issues and a new car, but I expected much more. Also I really liked the Gronholm segments, it would be nice if this wasn't a one-off

Superb Janner Rallye, as always :D

A question to our Polish members, maybe you can give some insight? When listening to Kubica's pacenotes, they sound like quite advanced compared to some other Polish notes (I don't speak Polish, it's just a feeling I get...). Is this true? I understand a bit and believe they're numeric notes, but what's the scale, 1-6? Also, what might be the two notes that sound like "logik" and "media"?

I didn't have time to watch a lot, but...
yes, his notes are quite detailed, but nothing extra ordinary I think. 1 is slowest corner, 7 is fastest. "lodzik" in translation means "small ice", he has also "lod" (ice). "media" is from "medium" I think, so corner "in between" two digits

Baumschlager said in an interview with local newspaper, that this could have been his last Jänner Rallye. Of course he will continue rallying, but in my opinion after beating Franz Wittmann´s record of Austrian championship wins in 2014 (he has already egalized it in 2013) he´d like to go for a quieter christmas holidays (which he stated) and doesn´t need every point for championship anymore.

Maybe this was Baumschlager´s last Jänner Rallye according to interview with local newspaper. He´s getting older (he´s 54 years old) and wants to celebrate x-mas and new years eve (like many other drivers) - and probably he doesn´t need every point for Austrian championship anymore in 2015 after beating Wittmann´s record this year (my personal interpretation).

as always it was fantastic! but i would wish we get a snow rally back, as it was in the past...

for me the best performances where delivered by (of course) Robert Kubica...he is a superhero....Kajto, Pech, Baumschlager (on Saturday) most surprised performances: harrach (right there after long break) neubauer, tarabus and gryazin!

[Mirek]

I wonder for what the rules are when we have even a video from the official promoter where Stöhl Racing mechanics are removing studs from tyres (7:04)...

I was wondering about, too. Harrach only said they did, but from Stohl Racing it could be seen even on Eurosport.

But the organisers published a bulletin on Saturday night reminding competitors that the removal of studs on purpose is forbidden, it was posted here before (by you WUff1):

One thing you can never doubt is Kubica's speed and bravery. :crazy:

Hope he does a few more ERC rounds as he brings some real excitement to a rally... :hot:

I'm hoping Harrach SS17 and Kubica SS18 with pacenote audio onboards from Mediasport... Fingers crossed. :lips:

It's available, 1080p HD w/ pacenotes & engine, perfect!

Anyway, this rally will stay in the books, incredible battle throughout the whole weekend, and what a win by no less than Kubica himself! I hope him great success in the WRC. Eurosport coverage was good too, it was really nice to see Grönholm again.
Sad for Kajto though, I hope it doesn't discourage him/his sponsors from taking part in more rallies in the future because he sure has potential.

Kubica should have gained confidence after Janner. If he focuses on getting some points in MC instead of flat out I can see a good year ahead for him.
