Only the Fiat's seems to be good S2000 cars without too much problems. I really doubt it if a S2000 car will win this rally.

Yes, in the old days everybody could have his own team of mechanics to run a group A car on his own.

Now it got much more complicate and there are only a few specialized teams that rent Super 2000 cars. But even if you pay a lot of money to use their services you can end up in big s-h-i-t like Czopik did :(

You said last year the same about the 206s... A Fiat driver will win in Ypres, not Peugeot.

You certainly should have thought the same about Fiatrally Turkey earlier this month... ;)

Did you notice that Czopik is still in the rally? He decided to drive a broken car and was 55th on SS4 and 50th on SS5...

Volkan Işık is well on his job, he's progressing very regularly and I know he's potential to win here in Crotia, he's closing the gap :D

I don't get it. With Freddy Loix the car runs perfectly, and last weekend they won in Spain too!! I thinks Rene George is capable of tuning the S2000's, they just seem to have bad luck with Czopick. :(

@Cricket-Films: very nice video, thanks mate!!!

Isik new leader after SS7 !!! :D

Solowow lost 22s :s

SJJ was 2nd fastest on stage and could improve position again after this one ;)

I don't get it, too. But now it seems that they managed to repair Czopik's car. He was 7th on SS6.

what's happened with Solowow in SS7?
In SS8 he pushed very hard. Now only 0,4s between him and Isik. I hope they can keep both cars on the road!!

That's what I expected till the end of the rally, I hope the battle between Işık and Solowow can go further without any crash ! :D

Another stage victory for Fontana ;)

And.. Isik is now on the lead!

Croatia Rally for me is being a nice surprise.. there is no Stars in this rally (only Joseph can be considered a star) but is being a competitive rally... I suppose very nice to see on the roads... in the little video that Cricket-Films left the link in a previous post we can see a nice show!

Tom, you were right. It wasn't a technical problem with Jean-Joseph's car, but a puncture.

I hit a stone that was by grass on the inside of a corner and punctured instantaneously. We had no other choice than to stop and change the wheel. After that, the only option for the rest of the day was to attack. - said Jean-Joseph.
