Victory for Bryan Bouffier and Xavier Panséri !!! :bounce: :bounce:
Very well done, guys !! :up:
I think they are "polish champions" as Tomasz Kuchar seems to have retired in the last stage and that Sebastian Frycz finished 5th(and get 4 points)... :confused:
Rally is over... Another victory for Bouffier...
Kuzaj finally got the finish line this year... he should be happy... :D
Lubiak done his best rally this year, very well... rd overall it's a fantastic result for him.
Bebenek, had to change a wheel in stage SS 12 and lost a lot of time... then he retired taken advantage of super rally system...
Kuchar retired with problems in the last stage.
Grzyb achive here a fantastic result... winner of 2 wheel drive cars, and 6th overall, very good for him.
The reason was that the clutch in Guzek's Punto broke down before the start of the rally.Quote:

Somebody was right here, that Guzek was driving Suzuki Swift not so long ago, but it was only a show for his sponsors, not a real rally.
And yes, Lubiak made a big progress in this rally! I could see with my own eyes, that he was driving much faster and cleaner, than he did in previous rallies. And there were no problems with the car, finally.
But congratulations go to Bryan Bouffier, who is already 2007 Polish Rally Champion. He can celebrate the title, because engine broke down in Kuchar's car on the very last stage, right in front of my eyes.
I will post some photos for you next week, now I'm too tired to do anything. Don't watch any photos until I post mine!!! ;)
Mirek: Guzek ran Swift only during some promo event for his sponsors ad partners...
The cause with that "steel hedgehogs" seems to me like some ultrapolish fan can´t get over fact, that polish crews are beaten by French... Maybe I am wrong, but this is the feeling I have.
Karbonyl: I think that drivers who suffered pancture by that hedgehogs were all Polish ;)
Your feeling is totally wrong. I have no idea why you think so.Quote:

Jarek: Similar case happened also in our republic few years ago. At Rally Bohemia 2001 somebody threw nails right in front of Octavia WRC driven by Bruno Thiry. The Belgian suffered double puncture and lost 90 seconds. Until this accident he was fighting for 1st position with Roman Kresta, who finally won the competition. Both of them were running the same cars of manufacture team Škoda Motorsport.
I can not understand behaviour of person, who did this, but on the other hand I can imagine, that this unusually thinking person can do anything in favour of his favourite and to annul his favourite´s opponents. And I still think, that both of these cases are veeeery similar.
We have these "nails" or "hedgehos" for the second time (in different places in Poland) and in both cases these actions look too professional. I'm afraid that this is done not by some stupid spectators. I still can't believe it's real and really don't know what to think about that... :(
This looks very bad and it's lucky that nobody got killed.
There was also a similar case last year on Rally Bohemia I think when someone spilled an oil canister and few cars crashed at that spot.Horrible! :mad:
