I'm back from stages. What to say...
From organization it was one huge chaos. From spectator point of view it was one of the best events I have ever seen. I saw much better action than in Monte Carlo this year, really. One of the reason was for sure perfect choice of places. I don't know why but I have every year the best feeling from my choice in this event. Maybe it's because of those superfast stages (see average speed, especially first day).
The results were quite as expected. Kopecký decided to make big attack already from start line. Kresta tried to keep with him but after SS2 he saw it won't be possible so he decided to keep Pech behind and let Kopecký be. One interesting factor for these crazy fast Friday stages was that Kopecký had extremely long gearbox for S2000. Where all others were in rpm limiter he was still accelerating. I guess he could have had top speed around 185-190 km/h. Pech's Mini has awesome suspension but it lacks too much power. Tarabus was nice surprise, Valoušek not. He didn't look slow at all. I think it had to be a lot in the car. It was not full Evo 12 as I heard. Maybe also a lack of confidence with new co-driver.
There was a big battle of gr.N drivers finaly won by Orsák. I'm afraid Kopáček is too crazy. He seems not to learn from his mistakes. It was his first start with Impreza on a real rally. He pushed like hell and crashed soon. Don't think it's the best way to start with completely new car.
2WD were pretty much one man show. Černý was by far the fastest despite problem with broken damper on SS4. All Citroën trophy cars are on Pirelli so he could have been even faster. By eye Elwis Chentre was also crazy fast but the times were not there...
The bad thing of the rally besides the organization chaos were three really big crashes. You already saw the one of Odložilík but there were another two. One of Baller (Civic VTi) and one of Kačírek (Impreza STI). The worst was the last one. Michal Ernst, co-driver of Kačírek (former co-driver of Semerád in PWRC for example) was badly injured. He had to be cut out of the car after it hit a concrete telegraph pole by side and roof. According to unofficial news his life is not in danger but he suffered several injuries from which the worst is multiple opened fracture of his right hand. For some reason this guy is like a magnet for big crashes which he experienced many times (last time big roll with Loprais in Dakar).
Thanks for the news, Mirek.
Sad to hear that Michal Ernst has huge injuries. I wish him a good and full recovery.

Excellent run by Kresta on the Santov stage: Vše o Rally CZ, AutoCrossu, RallyCrossu, Kartingu • MediaSport.cz Very beautiful stage, one of my favourites in Czech.
Hey Frank, I can see I was also on that gravel spot of Puntík. I took a place a bit after the tightest corner You were photographing - upon the road to have a view down to the valley.

We are after first round, what are you thinking about next rounds? Do Kopecky will dominate in other rallies? In Valasska he sent message to his rivals...
Second round already, and I'm not surprised by this.
yes this place on stage puntik was very nice, great action. also the stage odry. one of the best stages i see in czech republic. the last part after the city odry is very nice!!!
Hmmm....like this Kopacek :) fastest non-S2000 until his crash, unfortunetly drivers like him looses the support from sponsors fast, because they dont deliver results...hope he learns from his mistakes....
btw: great pics and videos, maybe I should visit a czech rallye this year...
and all the best for Michal Ernst, hope he can sit in a Rallyecar soon!
