Rally Saturnus 2011: In the rain Pech is from another world. Insane, really. :eek:
http://rezultati.omikronplus.si/obje...electedRace=10
Some problems for Longhi today? He was setting times like Běhálek or Šlehofer, that's not normal for me.
Longhi was using intermediate tires in heavy rain. He insisted with this tyres (with extra cuts) even on the second loop, no matter what the Target people (including Aleks Humar) suggested ...
I'm a little disappointed with Longhi's performance. With such form I don't think he can fight for victory in ERC Croatia Rally.
Rantanen is as fast with his own evo IX as this 207 S2000 (Laivola own's that car)Quote:

here is the official entry list
http://www.omae-epa.gr/pressrelease/213 (click on the "Συμμετοχες" word which is not with bold letters below the bold word "Συνημμενα")
Leonidas kirkos and kaitatzis and maybe kamitsakis should be the favourite but local Kosmopulos should do a good run as well the battle of the 2 litters is going to be once more great with kosmo,xalivelakis,zachos vaggelis and zachos vasilis all capable of winning.
there are 6 stages on tarmac 3 stages which are repeated...2 very steep downhill stages (the stage karavoma starts at 1000m altitude and the finish is around 200m within 20kms) and one uphill
here are the onboards from he 2 downhill ones with a golf kit car

live stage times here
http://www.ethea-live.gr/ (the rally is not present yet but it will be...click on the word "κενταυρος" (means centaur, since according to greek mythology centaurs lived on the mountain where the rally is held hence its name Rally Kentavros)
I have never spectated this rally before and i am spectating for 14 years now.....i always wanted to go there but believe it or not there was always some crazy reason and never went (its only 250kms from where i live) but this year i will be there if it doesn't rain since motorbikes are not weatherproof yet....the weather is starting to get hotter and it looks like summer is upon us here so everything looks good for me.
will have pictures ects blah blah blah after the event
Jarek, if you look yust final results, you are right....but if Longhi really has choosen the uncorrect tires yesterday in heavy rain, the gap behind Pech is understandable.....Quote:

IMHO Longhi will be in the fight for a victory....I'm going to Rijeka on Thursday afternoon to see first stages and than we will know more details, who will be on a charge.....
2nd round of danish championship this coming week-end(Rally Horsens) :)
http://www.rallyresult.dk/
I hope a great fight between Jensen, Kragh and Madsen ;)
The 1st and 3rd SS are uphill (the new SS3 has a small downhill part at the end). SS2 is all downhill and one of my favourite ss to spectate in Greece.Quote:

It will be! The rally center is in Ib Kraghs hometown, Juelsminde, so he really wants to win this one. The final stage is even passing his house.Quote:

The shakedown will be friday evening and the final stage will be saturday evening and both are expected to draw lots of spectators. A rallystage in a town is something new in Denmark and it will be very interesting to see, how it works out.

Thank'you very much!!Quote:

In fact it´s pretty old car. Mikko used this car in 2006, then it was driven by Henning in 2007. After few years at Wevers team it´s now running under Friul Motor. So I don´t think it´s spec. 08 :

I think that all Focuses of Wevers were upgraded to 08 (except the 02 of course). The age of bodyshell doesn't matter a lot.
With 9 stages completed, is the TEGEE DAN Rally finished, or not yet :confused:
Two stages to the end of Rally Tribec. Rain and hailstones reported from next stage...
Yes, it's finished.Quote:

Grzyb was penalized by 30 seconds for breaking a chicane. You can see this bad joke on a video which was presented as official proof (facebook page of the event): http://www.facebook.com/video/video....s¬if_t=like
I don't know exact Slovak rules but here in CZ it's without penalty if the barrel/columns of tyres or whatever doesn't move completely outside of a drawing of it's original position (this case). Than there are degrees 5-10-30 seconds according to the violation. For 30 You have to break through completely.
Now the penalty is reduced to 10 seconds, but it only shows how the results can easily be manipulated. :(
Aha, thanks A friend showed me Slovak rules and 10 seconds is appropriate to what is written on paper.
I don´t know if it has been posted before but, two spectators died yesterday and another one is seriously injured, after being hit in a rallysprint in Cordoba (Spain). They were standing in a forbidden area next to a left curve. Sorry, maybe this isn´t the proper thread because it wasn´t a national championship rallysprint, but a regional one. Anyway, it´s sad news. The event was cancelled after the accident
Very sad news to hear.
Entry for Rally Estonia is open:

Probably a time issue of Jan Tománek. He has small daughter now so maybe he wants to be more at home.
