How old is eric camilli?ewrc doesnt mention his age!
He's 25 (maybe 26 now) years old I think. I think he could be one of the "big guys" in the future. He's still young enough, and regarding the experience he has, his performance is great (see Rallye Deutschland for example, where I mentioned him already in some forum posts). On both tarmac and gravel he's a great driver, very clean style as well (big contrast to Lefebvre or Martin who are more brutal, especially on gravel).Quote:

PS: Camilli will run this week-end the Rallye Pays de la Fayence(as "0" car) ;)
10 african entries for next round of French Gravel Championship (Terre des Cardabelles).
The best known entrant is Alain Ambrosino. A frenchman living in Ivory Cost, now president of Ivoirian Federation, organizer of Bandama, ... and former officiel driver for Peugeot (Rally and Raid) and Nissan (Rally). He will run with a Lancer Evo VIII.
Then we have three other crews in Lancer : Gary Chaynes (CIV), who is the leader of African Champ, with an Evo X, Eric Pages (CIV) in Evo IX, and Moriféré Soumaoro, CIV champion 2012, with an Evo X.
Then 5 guy rented Saxo T4 : Jacquelin (CIV), Ligonnet, second in CIV 2013, Malherbe (CIV), Molinié (CIV) and Cantanhede, best driver from Burundi. The last entry is Andry Rakotomalala from Madagascar, who already did two events on gravel in France, with a 106 S16.
Other notable entries : Robin Auriol, son of Didier Auriol, with an Evo IV.
Frantz Comoli, good driver on gravel in 208 Cup, will upgrade to a DS3 R5.
The come back of Nicolas Romiguière, with a Clio R3. Former official Renault driver, I think he will run the new Clio RS R3T.
Of course, Lionel Baud (Fiesta WRC), Jean-Marie Cuoq (C4 WRC), Cyrille Feraud (Lancer WRC 05), Cédric Hennion (DS3 WRC), Jérôme Jacquot (207 S2000), Matthieu Margaillan (Fabia S2000), ...

Well for next year some change. Jean-Luc Roché, father of Pierre, will drive the Mini WRC in France D2 championship. Pierre is link to buy a Fiesta WRC for the French Tarmac.
No more coefficient in French Tarmac, that's a good news :)
And France D2 will have 15 rounds, I don't know how it will work. Can't see any reason to have so many events ... and they are in all part of the country, so a lot of travel for amator drivers. But let's see how it will be ... for the moment we don't know a lot of thing on it. Maybe drive will have to take part to a definite number of events in North of the country, and same in South. Could attract the main guys to travel.

My codriver and friend Thomas Dubois decides to stop his rally career. I respect his choice and it won't change our friendship. I wish him good luck for all his future projects...
Thanks Thom for all the good moments we had together.
Var entry-list
http://www.rallye-sport.fr/liste-des...e-du-var-2014/
Catastrophical weather in the Var region(and in overal great southern France) :eek:
Rain, rain, rain, parts of some roads destroyed by the water,...some stages could be cancelled :(
Anyway the event starts tomorrow friday afternoon and can be followed on http://www.patricksoft.fr/ as usual ;)
very good amount of entries at Rallye de Var.
Some photos I found, they describe the situation very well... I'm afraid there's a chance the event won't even take place.

From what I have heard the event is kept. They are looking to relocate service park and shorten stages where to avoid damaged roads. Pretty ridiculous considering that many people seek help from firemen and policemen who will be needed to secure safety during the event.
SS3 of tomorrow cancelled :mark:
SS9 cancelled aswell.Quote:

Until now (6th stage) Loeb didn't show any blistering performance. On the morning's stage he was even slower than Maurin....I hope he'll find the rythem....
IF i understand right form loeb's fb (by using translator since he writes in his language)he didn't make the right tyre choice.
Nous aurions pu optimiser notre choix de pneus pour cette matinée, du coup les sensations ont été un peu moyennes. On reste néanmoins en tête et c'est le principal. La météo est un peu incertaine pour cet aprem, mais quoi qu'il arrive il faudra attaquer!
we have to think that Loeb uses wrc type tyre,and Maurin uses pirelli national tyre at rainy tarmac.
i dont think he means this,i think he means he didint do the optimum tyre choice from the tyres he was able to choose.(the wrc tyres).I think i am not sure.
"We could optimise our tyre-choise for this morning, but the feeling wasn't so good. Nevertheless we're still in the lead and that's the most important. The meteo is a bit uncertain for this afternoon, but whatever happens, we need to attack!" - Translated it. ;)
Like Dimviii said, Loeb is driving WRC-tyres from Michelin. Keep in mind they are the "single thread" tyres, so no real slicks and no real rain tyres. The soft tyres are VERY soft (it needs to rain or be really cold/damp before you can use them), but still they don't drain the water like a proper rain tyre would. The difference is probably huge in conditions like they have now...
This video is a good example of what the drivers are facing on the stages.

The other reason is what Tom said about the wrc tyres for rain(they are not enough cut,so they cant cope with much water like at this rally.
Loeb took some distance in today's last (driven) stage. The most interesting battle for tomorrow is in the 208 Cup. Audirac leading, 3s ahead of Chavanne and 11,9s ahead of Margaillan, 56km SS to go so a lot can happen.
I heard in the news today that there has been raining during one day as much as normally during three months.
Congrats to Seb & Sev., does this say anything about the level of the French Championship (no Couq this weekend) or Loeb's actual form? In '15 when Loeb again decides to do the Var again, it would be nice to have the whole family in the car with child on the back seat ;)
