Yes... but don't forget he is a very experienced and good driver and he have some experience with an S2000 (VW Polo). and plus his local knowledge.Quote:

It seems a customer Fabia is a very good car, perhaps the best "customer car"
But even considering that, Hevia is very impressive.
What is more, is that he is great to watch, here is his first test with the Fabia: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BrtMfLZRSuU
Nice from Hevia, didn't know him ... very good. How old is he ?
Yeah but i heard Skoda does not sell last specification cars for privateers!!!!Quote:

I thought that they did, but that Peugeot and Abarth do not?Quote:

I guess thats the biggest hint that Skoda will join the WRC!
That's what i heard, maybe Mirek can clarifie us :D !!!!Quote:

In my opinion You can't get absolutely same car as factory car from any manufacturer. It doesn't matter if Abarth, Peugeot or Skoda. Factory cars are always a step forward (for sure this step is much smaller than in WRC). Otherwise it's about how much You pay, that good car You get.Quote:

Thanx for all the infos ;) I thought he was younger :D but nowadays it's not important, you can still be very fast even after 40 years (look at Andreucci =)Quote:

Looks like it could be best 2009 event so far for Vouilloz(along with Rally Curitiba) :)
Kris Meeke blog is reporting that a broken injector and malfunctioning electrical components have been replaced in service. Should go a bit better this afternoon.
This is going to be a good event, especially tomorrow.
OK SS6 running ;)
It's a pitty we don't get split times on this events(and previous events...except Barum) :(
Meeke almost as fast as Basso ;)
Good rally for Hevia but I think that on the second time on every stage, the foreign drivers will improve.
Don´t forget the Spanish championship, Ojeda, Pons and Vallejo are only 30 sec behind Hevia. Hevia will want to win the rally but he aims to win the championship.
How can he win the championship when he wasn't starting all season until Ferrol? ;)
It's impossible to win the championship, Hevia is thinking only in overall result, no chance to win something in Spanish champ. ;)Quote:

There are five rallies left: Príncipe Asturias, Llanes, Shalymar, Costa Brava and Sierra Morena. Hevia have won one rally: Ferrol.
And the winner of Príncipe Asturias gets some extra points (bigger coefficient).
For sure if Hevia wins tomorrow, he will fight for the championship!
Result of Fuster´s crash

Scratch for Vallejo with the Porsche 911! 6:44.8
The best S2000 (Basso) was 6:45.5
Vallejo faster than Basso on SS6 :eek:
Impossible if the GTs are downgraded compared to the S2000s in IRC :confused:
Welcome to Spain...Quote:

I think so. I prefer S2000 cars like this one... beautiful!Quote:

Tom: GTs are not running in IRC, so they don't need to be downgraded anyhow. Vallejo is in Spanish champ classiffication only.
First times SS7 in ;)
"Nice" battle for European tittle between Basso and Solowow...
Maybe something wrong with Solowow in this event.. he is being much slower than he use to be...
He is even slower than Gard. with the Corsa... maybe the Corsa have improved something, but Solowow is disappointing a lot
Loix ???? :confused:
something wrong with Loix... he lost more than 2 min.... maybe a puncture
Some problems on the stage, he is in the finish.
