How good is Suninen as a development driver?
Has he done that kind of work before?
Zaldivar I dont know much about.
not that helps about i20 rally2, but Suninen said that he did quite a lot of simulator tests for the new Puma rally1 car.. yet he never saw it in real.Quote:

Current Polish champion Miko Marczyk is going to compete in 6 rounds of WRC2. In one of the interviews he revealed some interesting numbers. He says that the cost of 1 season in Polish championship is 500 000 €, in ERC 1 million € and in WRC2 1,5 million €. Crazy numbers, aren't they?
I've no idea..Quote:

I do not think the number are far off the budget you need for a season. And the numbers are crazy!
This numbers are totally overrated and pumped in my opinion. Maybe presented for sponsors, so after the season you have 500.000€ or more in your pocket.
We all know how much per km is Rally2, how much are entry fees, tyres, fuel etc.
It is true that price for the car can vary a lot depending on team, but I hardly believe you can spent more than 100.000€ for one wrc2 event with big PET.
Price per km is something very variable... It's not because some teams rent a car for a certain amount/km, that it means you have the equipment and tools (dampers, gearboxes, diffs etc to choose from) to win for that price... ;) Also with the new fuel it seems you need an engine rebuild after every WRC2 event, so the price goes up quite a lot...
Dont't forget that it's not only rally km's, to be competetive you have to do a lot of testing, and that costs a lot alsoQuote:

This weekend Gryazin, Cais and Johnston testing/competing in Slovenia.
Yesterday tested Gryazin, today also Cais and Johnston, but on separate roads :)
They will start also on first rally for slovenian national championship (little less than 100 km of special stages), which will be held in region of Vipava valley near border with Italy. Friday night superspecial, saturday 9 special stages.
Weather forecast isn't good, for saturday heavy rain whole day and snow above 800m of altitude. Special stage Predmeja is in danger about having snow flakes, because it is up in higher places...
SS1 is live here:Quote:

Gryazin wins ahead of Cais, pretty comfortable, lead whole rally.
Johnston made little mistake on polluted road, cost him to withdrawn on SS4.
For me man of the race was Virves, with Rally3 won last stage in GC and finished rally 3. in GC after puncture of fastest slovenian driver Rok Turk with Hyundai i20 Rally2.
Fears about weather unfortunately came true, 2 stages in mountains were cancelled due snow storm (5-10 cm of fresh snow on some parts of stage) and strong wind (at moments more than 100 km/h).

I’ve hardly seen any.. just afternoon stages today?Quote:

Hopefully we will see the father of the current F1 champion in this series in 2023.Quote:

Shame!
Short footage of Kajto in action. This "silver mirror" livery looks strange in the sun.

It really looks strange from some angles:

I thought Lotos took their lesson from Kubica's horrible livery back in 2013, but this is even worse!!
i like it! : )
Yep... but still more than usual. Even Chris Ingram was shown and interviewed !Quote:

You are right! I forgot about this atrocity! :)Quote:
