Belgium newspaper speakes about Duval in Skoda or Hyundai during Condroz Rallye.

Bonjean - C4 WRC
Van Woensel - Lancer WRC
Allart - Fabia WRC
Canal-Roblès - Fabia WRC
Rumours about Matton + WRC-star (Lefebvre/Breen/Meeke...).
+ DS3 R5 from J-Motorsport for Emil Bergkvist. In terms of entries it will be a great event, of course crowd-control is a different thing...
Any Belgium guys here can give a quick preview for the rally and how you think each driver will perform. Tommeke_B? I feel Lefebvre should be quickest, and will maybe assert Citroën's decision on retaining him. Princen second, and maybe Hirvonen the dark horse?
Verschuren the best of the rest, excluding the WRC cars like Van Woensel. Unsure of Emil..

In wet/slippery conditions the battle will be between Cherain, Lefebvre and Princen (and Duval if he starts) I think. I think Cherain should be slightly faster (also thanks to Fabia R5), but he as a driver makes a lot of mistakes. Question is if he can remain flawless for the full length of the event. If it's really dry I think Van Woensel (Lancer '05 WRC) can join the game. I think Hirvonen will be somewhere between the first group I mentioned and De Mevius (who gained WRC2 experience this year, he could surprise us), Verschueren, Baugnet etc. Bergkvist is a big question, I think he can be among the quickest. The event has become shorter than it used to be some years ago. 220km SS on 24 stages, especially saturday stages are very short. The most challenging roads are driven on sunday imo.

Breen replaces Hirvo for Condroz. Hirvo has to test for Mini.

Real contender for the victory! I think it will be Breen vs Lefebvre (should recover directly from his crash on test + shakedown) vs Cherain (last year winner) vs Duval (if Fabia or I20). Maybe some 2.0l WRC could challenge for the victory if it is mainly dry (Vanwoensel with his Lancer WRC or Bouche depending on the car he will start with).
Duval with the Hyundai!
Great entrylist with 16 R5s (Breen, Lefebvre, Riedemann, Princen, Duval, Dilley, Verschueren, De Mevius etc etc), 8 WRCs etc:

Some info for people who are following the rally online.
R5-entrants: Lefebvre (DS3 R5), Breen (DS3 R5), Bergkvist (DS3 R5), Riedemann (208 R5), Princen (208 R5), De Cecco (208 R5), Monfort (208 R5), Duval (i20 R5), Dilley (i20 R5), Cherain (Fabia R5), Bouche (Fabia R5), De Mevius (Fabia R5), Verschueren (Fabia R5), Baugnet (Fiesta R5), Fernémont (Fiesta R5), Vanneste (Fiesta R5), Litt (Fiesta R5)
WRC-entrants: Matton (C4 WRC), Bonjean (C4 WRC), Grooten (C4 WRC), Van Woensel (Lancer WRC), Allart (Fabia WRC), Canal-Robles (Fabia WRC), Delplace (Octavia WRC), Kenis (Mini WRC - actually RRC with WRC wing)
Several GT3's, plenty of Evo's Gr.N/Gr.A, probably a nice battle in R2 as well... I think some ERC events would be jealous of this list. Rumors are around that Condroz will be part of ERC next year, as Ypres is out...
Link for live results, the itinerary is on it as well: http://www.condrozmobile.be/speciales.html Tomorrow 4 stages shall be run in the dark. Beware that some delay is rather usual in this event...
Rain is predicted overnight, saturday should be quite dry, on sunday there could be some rain. Overall the stages will always be slippy. Tyre rules for all 4WD cars are same as in ERC, probably all drivers on softs for the whole rally.
Riedemann not on the startlist...
