Vovos will do only gravel rallies this season with the exception of Halkidiki Rally for ERC in which he will do both days (tarmac and gravel). So far no plans for S2000. Evo9 until the summer (Focus WRC 07 - Munchi's, for Acropolis) and most probably Evo10 after it gets its homologation.

I'd say, that Spici,Turán and Herczig are also very strong opponents and Érdi jun. will drive a Fabia, so it's not a one-horse race!

No Tom, it wasn´t an April fool. The weather forecast for the week-end is not very good. Porto Santo is small island very close to Madeira, and the only way to go there, is by plane or by Ferry. An that is the problem, the ferry boat can experiment some problems to make the trip..and the organizers do not want to take some risks....
The rally was delayed by one week.

new competition - open rally challenge - has started in croatia. the competition includes 4 sprint rallies. the first one took place last weekend at cazma and it includeed 3 different stages. 2 of them on tarmac, and 1 on gravel surface.
