Oh no....Problem for Scandola... 2 min behind Ucci now.
yes... maybe an engine problem... I think he will retire...
Nothing new in Italy, as it almost look like a surprise with Scandola;a destroyed engine in Umberto's Fiesta interrupted his excellent driving..... but is always a big ???? how fast was Andreucci really pushing.
Anyway, Andreucci leading after the first day, yust nine seconds behind him Roxsy; Pisi is almost two minutes behind on the third place-that shows real skills of Andreucci and Rossetti, they are from ''other planet'' compare to others.
Both DS3's are again showing their superiority in the 2WD class. Well done Citroën !!!
That's not over yet: Ucci has only 9"2 advantage over Rox for 5 stages left tomorrow ;)
I think Andreucci will win this one, he seems well in control of situation. ;)
8"4 is the gap between Ucci and Rox ater SS9 this morning, and now comes the 26km long stage ;)
Strange the puncture of Crugnola in SS10(+ 3' lost to change a tyre) :s I suspect a kind of team order from Citroën in order Campedelli to be "safe" winner of GrR and get junior title :rolleyes:
4"4 is the new gap between Ucci and Rox with a superspecial and a 13km long stage to run this afternoon :D
So, Andreucci wins once again in front of Rox with Cunico in third step of podium.
It is over: Andreucci won this event, although Rossetti managed to close the gap; at the end the gap was yust 4,7 seconds. Still, deserved victory for winning this event to Andreucci-and not forget, he is sixth time national champion.
But for me personally the hero of this rally was definitely the ''old gun'' Franco Cunico-he pushed to the limit and overtook Alesio Pisi. Nice to see old guy on the podium; by the way, he won the title in the ''Indipendenti category''!! According to the rumors this was his last season in CIR. He will be soon 55 years old....
Congrats to young S.Cempedelli, as I predict he ended this rally among first ten drivers and also won the title in the category of young drivers.
Season 2011 is finished, what will happen next year??? Will there be a driver who will finally be able to fight whole season against Ucci??? I'm not sure.....
Cunico an old rival of Snijers, and both are still driving ^^
