After SS1 Rautenbach is second behind local driver Pascal Trojani(BSA whale) :)
Ogier is 30th, far behind the S1600 local driver Jean-Toussaint Albertini...maybe a problem or puncture or off ??? :(

That is already known since last year.

AFAIK they may start but outside overal classification.

Answer for Tom206WRC-indeed Felice Re is an Italian Tarmac Champion(TRA) !!!
He was already a champ in 2006, last year it was a desaster with Fabia WRC, but this year he was unstapable....I'm very hapy for him, his co-driver and wife Mara and of course for a winning team Vieffecorse, who was responsible for Xsara WRC.
I hope he will selebrate his titel in Monza Rally show in mid-November, with a lot of smoke under the tyres...

It's exactly the opposite :) wrc and A8 cars will stay in 2009 and can fight for the overall championship!
