A very sad end of Perico's Rally Prealpi Orobiche, his Fiesta WRC caught a fire already on the first stage:
30° Rally Prealpi Orobiche 2013 - Incendio Ford Fiesta Wrc / Perico ( HD ) - YouTube
On the second stage retaired also Corrado Fontana, winnner of the first round of I.R.C.cup rally. In the moment on the first place Matteo Gamba(Xsara WRC), followed by Felice Re !!
Perico was unlucky but fire didn't look too bad (assuming it didn't get worse) so also lucky too I guess.Quote:

any entry list for rally costa smeralda?
Ucci won the Costa Smeralda(in front of Scandola) and was back to te 207 S2000 ;)
He won (very convincingly and to be honest, expected..) the CIR classment, but even more interesting were his times compared to WRC2 (Kubica&Co), he was constantly faster than many WRC runners....The old fox is still very fast. I hope he will retain his speed and motivation for next season-one P208 R5 is reserved for him..Quote:

I don't think Pug would be ready for Sanremo. The homologation is scheduled to January if I'm not mistaken.
Yes Mirek, Meeke said so (homologation of P208T16 R5 will be half a year from Ypres) , but it was for first time I heard that. Two weeks ago I heard P208 will be ready before WRC Rally France. So it is changing very often.
Since first asphalt testing started two weeks before Ypres I don't see it possible so early.
Exactly! This is true! I made a small comparison between Andreucci, Kubica and Kosciuszko on the same stages. I wasn't surprised that Ucci was faster than Kubica - that was obvious, but that he was faster than Kosciuszko driving Ford Fiesta WRC is quite embarassing for the Polish driver :)Quote:

6 MONTE OLIA 13:19.3 14:05.3 14:15.5 14'06.0
Kubica wasn't even close to Andreucci, but he easily won WRC-2 with a big margin. I didn't know that the level of WRC-2 was so low.
This week-end 3rd race valid for Italian I.R.C.-Rally Casentino will take place. Again very promising entry list, this time with no ''big'' names from CIR, but anyway it is going to be a splendid battle between Re and Corrado Fontana, maybe Sossella joins them....It is also worth to mention first Italian appering with DS3WRC, Max Beltrami (the owner of D-Max racing team) will drive as a first Italian driver this beautiful car.

Max Beltrami is Swiss, isn't he? :)
Italio-Swiss, yes. He lives in Swiss, but his team is registered in Italy.Quote:

Second place to Corrado Fontana (Focus), third was Cresci (C4) and a bit disapponited fourth Felice Re.
What came a bit of schock to me is a huge gap between first in 2WD class and first with N4 car-Herman Gassner junior. We can not deny that he is one of the top EU rally driver, but to be beaten (and without any technical problem) by so many drivers with Clio's R3&S1600, well, a didn't expect this.....

Rally San Marino is finished; my congrats are for a deserved winner-Umberto Scandola. He successfully defended from Basso's attacks. This is also a clear massage, that Basso is a brilliant driver on tarmac, but on gravel his performance is nothing breathtaking....What I'm want to say that his last year's victory on this rally with more competitive drivers (it was an IRC rallye) was also a result of his RRC Fiesta. Now, seating in N/ car, and with only Umberto as a main rival, he wasn't able to repeat his success.
But the biggest disappointment I see in Alessandro Perico. He has this year great chances to become CIR champion as a private driver after many years, but his performance on gravel are so weak....Just look his gap behind Scandola-more than five minutes....thanks god that the competition is very weak in he scored 5th place at the end, but this is no way for a driver to become a champion....
Who convincingly won the 2WD class ??? Again Paolo Andreucci.....the old fox is not giving it up....
Thanks for your impressions Ucci!

Rox on entrylist is very interesting news :)
Edit: what about Andrea Carella(running in junior class) :confused:
Basso in the lead of Rally Friuli after two stages, just in front of Scandola and Albertini ;)
Puncture and then retirement for Perico on SS1 :mark:
Good fight in 2WDs between Nucita and Campedelli, Ucci just behind them ;)
Engine problem for Ucci in SS3 !!!! Can't believe there could be an end to his long serie of results since 4 years, today in Friuli :mad:
Gosh !!!! Off road(crew OK)for Giandomenico Basso(SS4) once again !!! ;(
Ohhh Basso :(
I can't believe my eyes !!!! Yesterday friday Ucci escaped from a terminal electrical problem on his 208 R2, losing quite many time, and today saturday he's fghting for podium position with two stages left to go :eek: :eek:
Epic champion ??? :D
Scandola champ, can't believe... If Andreucci was in s2000, that would never happen...
Italy has a new CIR 2013 champion !! My sincere congratulations to Umberto Scandola !! As I already predicted during the winter (when it was official, that Andreucci will be this season ''just'' behind the steering wheel of smal pocket-rocket P208R2), he was the main favourit for this year crown. Thank's to Škoda Italy, of course....
So, 49th edition of rally del Friuli has been finished, a lot of retirements, which shows that this rally is very selective....But there are few drivers, for whom this this is no obstacle, they push like mad....As Tom206WRC mentioned, veteran Paolo Andreucci (where the hell he finds motivation??) lost yesterday more than 1min30sec, but today his performance were simply astonished-his stage times are almost ''science fiction''. He ended rally on 4th place. Without time lose he could be third.....and we are talking over CIR, not some village rally....I know stages of this rally quite well (huge gradients & countless 180 degree bends upwards, from where a small P208R2 hardly accelerate....for example a Clio R3 or DS3R3T must obtain from each such combination app.1 second...) and therefore can not understand, how can be one driver with just 180bh and 2WD so much faster than competition with almost the double power,4WD, bigger tyres&brakes...miracle....Well, the award for such outstanding performance is already ''around the corner''-new P208R5 for CIR 2014 !!
And now to the sadder side of this rally-valid also for Slovenian championship; all I can say that Humar with his Clio R3 and Turk with P208R2 showed some speed (though both were constant ''beaten'' by Andreucci), but unfortunately they retaired...the biggest slovenian embarrassment are N4 drivers, they were all the time even behind Turk, not to mention Humar...at the end two italian crews with R2 cars are 3min in front of ''mighty'' Slovenian evo's9....a rally to forget....but this is sad picture of slovenian rally scene-as slovenian economy falls, so the drivers quality is dropping....hoping for better times...
Enough whining-it is time to celebrate for Scandola !!
No Rosseti, Andreucci, etc. Easy job for Scandola...
