Lukyanuk was very lucky already during one of the previous rounds, when his team hardly managed to fix the car on time. This time luck was not on his side. But how many times can he count on his luck?

I do not remember if he crashed before Liepaja or Rome, but for Poland Sainteloc brought second car between test and rally.
1. He crashed before Poland and the team got second car.
2. He crashed on Sunday in Liepaja. "Ate" concrete anti-cut that broke the radiator and was very lucky to make it to service which fortunately was right after the stage.
3. Rolled on Estonia PS and made it to finish with wheel(s) at funny angles
4. Crashed out in Rome
5. Crashed out before Barum
5/5 with incidents.

Sadly here it likely ruins the competition before the start.
Kopecky can likely just take the win cause Mikkelsen will drive "safely" for 2nd-3rd and just try to control Llarena.
The only hope is that rainy weather makes it hard for anyone to control anything.
No Saintéloc replacement car available due to all of them being on the way to Greece.
By the way guys, the organizers for the first time connected Semetín with the best part of Troják (SS Hošťálková) into an epic rollercoaster. Hopefully there will be some onboard for you.
I for myself for the first time in last fifteen years skip the rally. Somehow I'm loosing interest in our sport (which has a lot to do with a change in my life in which I left automotive and filled my head with other things than cars).
Ohhh Alexey, not again :(
What a disappointment for this weekend’s fight.
Also I don't know if it was mentioned here but the test of Lukyanuk was not part of the official test. It was his own private one held on a well known Barum stage which is not used this year. The official test was held on a stage which was last used in 2010.
PET including Lukyanuk
