30th August 2007, 10:40
As everyone know, next year (http://www.ircseries.com/html/readNews.asp?id=648) Rally Principe de Asturias will take part in IRC.

This year the rally counts to the European Cup, the Spanish Championship, the Asturian Championship and the Spanish Regularity Rally Championship.

The entry list is good for a national rally, there is 5 S2000 cars, many S1600 and Gr N Cars, but better than quantity of nice cars, they have quality in the entries.

The biggest surprise is Dani Solá with a Peugeot 207 S2000! I don't know from what team is the car and how was the agreement for this race, but I will try to get some info.

Enrique Garcie Ojeda (http://www.rallyes.net/images/stories/noticias/2007/IRC/ojedabarum.jpg) will take part in the event to :)

There severall nice drivers to follow in this rally:

-Sola
-Ojeda
-Fuster (http://www.rallyes.net/images/stories/noticias/nacional/2007/fuster_ourense.jpg)
-Marcelino Hevia (http://www.mhevia.com/elcoche/image03_big.jpg)
-Alberto Hevia (http://www.rallyes.net/images/stories/noticias/nacional/2007/hevia_rias_web.jpg)
And specially we must pay attention to Yeray Lemes (http://dcphotorally.ttverde.com/album/album44/R0123_Yeray_Lemes.jpg), he is from Canarias Islands, he is very young but very good driver.

And the surprise of 2007 Spanish Champ. Vallejo brothers (http://www.rallyes.net/images/stories/nacional/2007/asfalto/vallejoferrol.jpg) driving their fantastic Porsche 911 GT3. This season they won 2 Rallys, El Corte Ingles and the last event of Spanish champ. Rally de Ferrol.
It will be very interesting to see what he can do against Top S2000 cars and drivers (Sola, Ojeda, etc).

Aaron Burkart will be there to with his C2 S1600, maybe in order to prepare next IRC season.

They're on a separate entry list, for a 'regional' event. I think they're running after the other cars.

Yes, because GT cars aren't allowed in International events... it only counts for Spanish Champ.

Sure, but the big news were about Dani Sola in a 207 S2000 and presence of Garcia-Ojeda whereas other S2000s were already known(Fuster and Hevia especially) ;)

If you look at the pics of the entrants car it seems Dani Sola will use the 207 from the Twister Corse(ex-Perico, Italy) on this event :confused:

8th September 2007, 09:26
I'm listening to the radio, and... Solá lost a wheel on SS2... it looks like it was a a high speed section... e touch something and lost a wheel and damaged a lot the left side of the car..

By the way, very impressive performance by Vallejo brother once again! on SS1 only 1.8 sec. slower than Ojeda! ;)

EDIT Meira, lost a lot of time due to a puncture...

One stage to the end of leg one and Ojeda on the lead since frist stage.
He have a nice advantage over Marcelino Hevia and Alberto Hevia.

Traditional GR N cars, are really aways from the others...even aways from the impressive Porsche of Vallejo.

yes , the Polo stop in the first stage.. broken FL driveshaft ( was new this F...... Part !) :mad: we did a good test and all looked good, but soemtimes motorsport is like that..... but it hurts. and Hevia is looking good to take second place tomorrow and take good points for the championship.

rally very very lasts from the beginning. Ojeda very hard, very fast M.Hevia, A.Hevia conserving for the Spanish championship, and Vallejo very fast but when leaving at the end of the enrolled ones is very dirty the road.. In gr. N, S.Fombona very fast but to puncture one rolls it made him lose 2 minutes. Sola crash in the second stage when being blind person by the sun,Fuster crash and upset. Problems also for Burkart, and breakage of motor of V.Senra.

Alberto wants to play it safe and take the points for the championship, Ojeda is not important and Marcellino also not for the championship. so 3rd place is a good result at the moment.

This is being a really hard rally for all!

Yeray Lemes broke his gear box and retired in SS 11.. Fombona had problems in the same stage.. he don't know if he broke the engine or turbo.. but porbably is turbo, because he continue the rally.

Alberto Hevia was without brakes in the half of the stage...

And in SS13 Marcelino Hevia retired.. I don't know the reason yet...

principe IRC

In the end rally very hard with many abandonments. In the today etape all went to maintain situation.Bad luck for Yeray Lesmes, with breakage gear box,and Marcelino Hevia with breakage of direction in the stage that happens in front of its house.
