With a lot of luck I can tell you that the first tarmac round of the IRC will be in my homecountry Belgium. It is held 21-24 june 2007 and also counts for the European Rally Championship and the Belgian Championship.

There should be at least 12 S2000 cars at the start and also a lot of S1600, other N4 and some R3 cars too!

I'm really looking forward to this event, to enough days off from work so I could also go to shakedown...

This thread is to talk about this event!!! :)

I'm not sure if they should send Scandola to Ypres again :D

24th May 2007, 13:59
I'm not sure that they should send Scandola again to anywhere. He hasn't got the pace comparing to Navarra while Alen outpaced him in Turkey...

NRI
25th May 2007, 10:35
Scandola will be back in Ypres this year !
I was during 2 days with Peugeot-sport for testing in north of France (just near my home). Panizzi and Vouilloz were here to test 207 S2000 . There will be at least 5 207. (Garcia-Ojeda, Vouilloz, J.Toth, Rossetti, Casier) and maybe Panizzi. Urmo Aava will be there before Deutschland with his Swift S1600, Jean-Joseph with teh C2, Luca Betti and Dani Sola with the new Civic R3 and plenty of Fiat Punto S2000...

Tom206wrc
25th May 2007, 11:47
Incredible and very interesting that Rossetti will be there too :D

What about Marco Cavigioli who enters Rali da Madeira(3rd IRC Round) with a 207 S2000 ?? :confused:

I hope Alessandro Perico will be there too, unless Panizzi uses his car(from Enfolras)...

If Panizzi comes he's my absolute favourite for the win despite experienced belgian drivers(Loix, Casier, Tsjoen) :p :

HaCo
25th May 2007, 16:30
Nice to hear Rosetti comes too, he is not the top, but almost... ;)

I just hope Panizzi will come to, we have seen WRC drivers going into a ditch on the first stage before... :D :D

Jarek Z
25th May 2007, 16:50
Yes, it's typical for Ypres. WRC drivers end in the ditch and IRC drivers fall in the pond :D

If rumours are right, another 2 207 S2000's should be added: one sponsered by CRACK (they sponser every year a car) and the one of Panizzi. Also Czopick is still missing, wonder if he will drive?

Then I wonder how many S2000 wil survice first round. :)

Tom206wrc
4th June 2007, 16:53
Great amount of S2000s already :bounce:

I don't think this is true. Dudu us connected to Skoda Belgium, so it would be quite weird. But, there is another top driver rumoured for an 207 S2000, sponsered by CRACK. It will be announced next weekend, I read.

Hi all

I will be in Ypre from Wednesday for the 25th time, and will be covering all the British drivers for our magazine, Rally Results Magazine

Can anyone tell me for my records, which teams/sponsors are for Marco Cavigioli and Patrick Snijers. Also, will Pieter Tsjoen be entered by Duindistel as usual.

Any of the teams/sponsors for any of the Ypres entry list will be very appreciated

Many thanks

I think they will use Pirelli, they used it in Miskolc Rally aswell. As it was a test rally, it wouldn't have much sense to use different tyres on Ypres.

You can't buy weekend tickets on the stages, that's all I can say.

Don't trust shakedown times: it started dry, when most ran it slow to do recky and than suddenly the sky opened en rain was dropping very hard. Seen very spectacular things, 3 offs too, where a lot of photographers, so pics later...

And for sure Loix and Cols, which are very good drivers in rain. Tsjoen is not that good in rain and Casier is not an absolute topdriver.

My opinion is that Casier would be in a fight around place 8. He is missing ritm as well and it is his first rally with the Peugeot.

Tom206wrc

Casier in first place? That will never happen in Ypres. I doubt that the podium will only for the Belgian drivers.

I think:
1 E. Garcia Ojeda
2 F. Loix
3 A. Navarra
4 L. Cols
5 R. Travaglia
6 P. Tsjoen
7 D. Iliev
8 N. Vouilloz



I think you under-estimate Luca Rossetti by not picking him in top 8 :p :

About Vouilloz he could be a great surprise, because yes, he doesn't know the rally, but he didn't know Turkey neither... ;)

Normally, without Super 2000 cars, all of these drivers would easily be in top 10. But this year things are not that simple for group N cars. I think that Cols and Travaglia will finish between 6th and 10th position. And Bruyneel? He is always fast in Ypres... but this time maybe 12th?

http://www.ircseries.com/html/readnews.asp?id=624

SS6 of Belgium Ypres Rally cancelled

The final stage of leg one last night, SS6 (Langemark) was cancelled this morning, due to anomalies with a yellow flag. A marshal was holding out a yellow flag at the beginning of the stage, in response to an incident on the previous running of the stage when several cars had gone off. ...

Some competitors slowed down dramatically when they saw the flag - such as Honda's Dani Sola - and lost time. They successfully argued that they had been disadvantaged unfairly, and the event stewards agreed to cancel the stage.
This means that the end of leg 1 results are those at the end of SS5.
