Any update on the new I20 Rally2 homologation/first start?
Saw that Adamo's target in March was 1. July.
For WRC target is/was Rally Estonia, maybe some smaller Rally before that ?Quote:

What is difference between tires for rally1 and rally2?
Mikkelsen supposedly should have had a test in CZ this weekend that got cancelled.
Possibly first test of some test mule for the new Fabia or too early?
Basing this on these points:
- testing in CZ where you can only really test tarmac well and there is no tarmac rally soon
- Skoda Motorsport is based in CZ and any first tests of the new car will surely happen there
- test got cancelled seemingly just a few days before, could be million reasons but when building a new car it's more likely issues happen
A few days ago der Ohanessian (Bulacia's co-driver) said that they would be going to CZ to test with Skoda. And they would also be working a couple of days with the car in the workshop thinking about Safari Rally.Quote:

They do tests for gravel and even snow in Czechia too, just not many.
