The regular Swedish Rally Championship starts next weekend in Sandviken. ( 1 more snow in the end of feb. then 4 gravel events)
Freddy Loix is codriving Pieterjanmichiel Cracco (17 years old) indeed. He is going to guide him through the first events. Cracco Jr is being prepared for a rally-carreer, has been following lessons at Urmo Aava his rally-school too. He will have a full program with several events in Estonia with a 206 N3, and events in Belgium with 208 R2, perhaps some events in France with a 208 R2 as well. In those events he should be co-driven by some experienced Belgian codrivers (such as Björn Degandt and Fred Miclotte I think).Quote:

So did the right by not risking anything in her first race with the new car.

Anyway i did found a web stream service for Swedish rallying: SBF Play » Rally
Only 20 crews instead of 40 started?
No, it is dissapointing, if you're good at driving, and you have a good car, you give everything, and she had some testing with the car. So, in my opinion, this is again one of the cases where ambitions exceed substance. And believe me, I have nothing against women in rallying, or racing in general.Quote:

And a new car is a new car. Especially if you don't have experience in WRC cars.
I don't think you realize the big differences between driving a Lancer Evo X grp N which is
larger/heavier with less power compared to a Fabia WRC which is smaller, lighter and with much more power.
She also have not done a winter rally in almost two years.
No, 10 best crews in each class (2WD and 4WD) got to final third round out of 40 crews together.Quote:

It was very nice event, choosen also by some crews as test before ERC round in Latvia held week later.

He deserves a WRC, so it's good to see him with S11. It's better than the DS3 or an old Lancer. And it's a sign of money too !Quote:

As the final countdown to the Safety Direct Galway International Rally rapidly approaches, Donnelly Motorsport are delighted to announce the renewal of their sponsorship agreement with Colm Quinn and their entry into the first round of the Irish Tarmac Championship with the McGeehan Motorsport John Cooper Works MINI WRC.
Speaking this morning, Eugene said,
“I am delighted to be involved with Colm Quinn and McGeehan Motorsport giving me the opportunity to drive the WRC MINII again. Colm Quinn and his team in MINI Athlone have pulled out all the stops to make this happen and I must say I am so excited about driving the new WRC RHD MINI. The experience from last year should help in getting a good result and with Mark Kane sitting alongside me for the event I am really looking forward to the slippery roads of Galway. I would like to extend my thanks to Lakeland Tyres, Lisnaskea for their support also and look forward to a safe and enjoyable rally.”
After the success of the partnership in 2012, both Eugene and Colm Quinn are anxious to revive the momentum of what was dubbed as MINI’s return to Rallying with Colm saying “The MINI WRC’s performance thrilled spectators last year providing a closely fought race, after the days rallying the MINI WRC finished a close 2nd, beaten only by 1.2 seconds having had to deal with 2 punctures during the day. We are delighted to have Eugene back on board along with McGeehan Motorsport and look forward to a thrilling display on Sunday”.
McGeehan Motorsport expect that this year’s entry, the latest WRC.01B Right Hand Drive version of the MINI WRC, to be even more competitive than the 2012 entry, with it being the only right hand drive car built by any current WRC Manufacturer. McGeehan Motorsport has been responsible for the final development on behalf of Prodrive who are the FIA Manufacturer.
Everyone involved with Donnelly Motorsport along with Colm Quinn would like to thank the general media for their support and coverage of the Rally and to all the Marshalls, Time-keepers, Officials, Competitors, Spectators and everyone involved with the Rally, we wish a safe and enjoyable weekends rallying to all, both on the stages and off.
Nope, it's hot off the press for 2013!!!
live results from Swedish Championship;
Resultatservice - Vinterpokalen 2013
radio; Radio Sandviken
So far Tidemand is in a class of his own. Over 2 minutes ahead of the 2nd placed driver Jaari Saarinen.
Ramona is still a bit off-pace but have not done any testing due to the warm weather during the past week.
She had an off at SS2 and spent something like half an hour in a snow bank/ditch before she could get going again.
Also again there have been timing problems. The times noted by the marshals does not match the times at the official results page.
Pontus Tidemans wins with a margin of 3.12 minutes. Jaari Saarinen finished second and Robin Friberg was third
overall 12 seconds behind Saarinen. Friberg however was the winner of his class.
