With all respects to local guys, I am expecting K.Rovanpera's third overall victory. His main rivals could be Vorbjovs on Mitsubishi Mirage and Samsonas on 4WD(!) BMW.
Samsonas will not start unfortunately

I believe it's a Dytko based proto, not an R5. It looks and performs great!Quote:

Ares (911) tried very hard but the restricted Porsche doesn’t rev up like it used to (still 2 brave stage wins). S1600 Swift’s always too strong in 2wd field.

It's typical Proto. Body from Dytko, evoX internals with sequential gearbox, all assembled by Vorobjovs Racing.Quote:

Bernhard ten Brinke is doing 6 rallies with a Fabia R5 from Wevers Sport this year. Two in the Netherlands, two in Belgium and WRC Germany and Spain! Still doubting whether he goes to Dakar.
Turkish Rally Championship is set with Second leg which also ERT leg Rally of Turkey Marmaris.
As we BCVision Motorsport and Friul Motor is set with 4 cars again with aganist Fiesta R5 of Ford Rally Team Turkey and 208R5 of Neo Motors

Here is the participant list for the rally Velenje in Slovenija. It is the first rally (and we are almost in the second half of 2016..) for our championship.
Given the fact, that this is by far the most important rally in Slovenija (successor of rally Hella-Saturnus, which had original roots in begining of 1980's), it is a ''shameful'' list. Less than 30 domestic crews, no S2000 / R5 car on the list...if I compare this entry list to let say Czech, Slovakian, Hungarian championship entries, I can only cry.....that why all members from mentioned countries-be proud of your rally scene. We are poor like church mice..

The 3rd round of the Hungarian Championship, the ISEUM Rallye finished today. Herczig won again in style, coming back from 17,7s behind after having to sweep the stages on the first day to win by 16s. Kazár retired after knocking a hole in his radiator and overheating, whereas "Janika" was struggling all event long - spins, stalls, popoff-problems... only finished 6th (though he was 11th after the first day, and only lost 4th on the last stage). Best surprise goes to Hadik, he was always good on tarmac, now he almost won on gravel. Very weak 2WD entry, Klausz was good as always, the rest not so much. Results:
1. Herczig-Bacigál, Skoda Fabia R5 1:12:39.9 (avg. speed: 116.5 km/h)
2. Hadik-Kertész, Ford Fiesta R5 Evo +16.0
3. Balogh-Holczer, Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IX +1:22.3
4. Velenczei-Farnadi, Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IX R4 +1:27.1
5. Vincze-Kuti, Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IX R4 +1:27.3
6. ifj.Tóth-Szőke, Peugeot 208 T16 Evo +1:28.6
7. Ollé-Budai, Ford Fiesta S2000 +1:45.1
8. Osváth-Nemes, Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IX +1:45.4
9. Trencsényi-Verba, Ford Fiesta R5 Evo +1:45.8
10. Cseh-Németh, Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IX +2:12.5
Great rally in Latvia, Talsi Rally, round of Latvian and Lithuanian Championships. Dominated by Martynas Samsonas (together with Mindaugas Varza) in their BMW M3X. They won all the stages, including qualification stage. Got 1min penalty, so needed to recover from it and won rally on last stage, overtaking young Kalle Rovanpera.

TRC (Turkish Rally Championship) 3 rd rally Ford Otosan Kocaeli Rally is very close to start. (11-12 of JUne)
Classical gravel stages total of 104km with 8 stages.
As Yagız Avcı leading the standings with his Munaretto run 208 R5, Murat Bostancı chasing him with Tok Sport run Fiesta R5 Evo and Burak Çukurova at third BC Vision Motorsport Fruil run 208 R5.
What has to be expected is there is a strong battle between these 3 drivers. Avci using Michelin and Bostanci and Çukurova using Pirelli's.
Also there is a strong fight at Class N which belongs to Evo's with 7 drivers fighting right now.

This weekend Rally Santander-Cantabria for CERA! Hope for a good run for Garcia!

Kalle needed to upgrade to R5 to try to fight with homemade BMW of Samsonas:)))
benchmark will be Tidemands times though for KalleQuote:
