Decent entry for Azores.
No Cerny/Gemini on the list though, or Gryazin?
Not for nowQuote:

A great start for this year ERC.Quote:

Wow! Despite the break he doesn't seem rusted :)
To say the truth, I dont believe in Bernardo so much...Quote:

It may not be easy for Sousa, as he was away for a while and this is his first rally with the DS; besides, his main target is the Azorean championship, not the ERC. On the other hand he’s more used to a flat out pace than a tactical one and may be tempted to match Moura speed, meaning he could be fighting for the top 5. Anyway, it’s great to have him back. Fingers crossed for him.Quote:

No one questions the speed of Bernardo Sousa but we also know that he´s very inconsistent in terms of results.
Chris Ingram on his ERC Skoda R5 drive with Toksport:
”I have been aiming to compete in the top tier of the European Rally Championship for a long time. Thanks to the €100,000 prize fund for winning the ERC Junior U27 title last year it has made that dream a possibility. There were many many discussions and options on the table so It has been an incredibly difficult task to choose the right one.
Having met with Toksport in Germany in February I am very confident with my decision, they are a passionate and top team and their offer was too good to refuse. They want to win as much as me so it makes perfect sense! I can’t wait to drive the Fabia R5 for the first time and to start a new title fight in the Azores next week with the new team and car. The Azores is one of my favourite rallies in the world, however I’ll face a big challenge.”
Tobacco advertising is still allowed on Azores?Quote:

Alem Mar is a brand not a company. The company is called "Empresa Madeirense de Tabacos" and the other is "Fabrica de Tabaco Micaelense" and runs under the "Play" brand. They will compete also in Madeira Championship with a second team.
...and Rego will run in Lotus Colors?
Not on this rallyQuote:

Ferry was not the problem, all cars arrived in time and were ready for the tests. Bigger problem were lot of delayed or cancelled flights over Europe, so some crews or team members had problems to arrive to Sao Miguel in time.Quote:
