Latest news: Andrea Nucita(207 S2000)and Rudy Michelini(DS3 R5)in CIR this season ;)
Is this just a joke ?? Basso in a Fiesta R5 powered by a Gas?? To be on a safe side: is this even allowed by the FIA rules?? I know that Stohl racing from Austria runs a mitsu evo9 powered by a gas, but is this so simple ?? You turn a car on a gas power and that is all?

FIA rules dont allow it. But national federation can allow it national championship.Quote:

Glorious double victory for family Re at Franciacorta Circuit Rally !! Father Felice in front if his son Alessandro ! All I can say : wish there would be more fathers like Felice and would alow their sons to drive WRC car !! Thank you Felice, a great example for other wealthy fathers.
Official !!! Stefano Albertini will drive the factory 208 R2 from Racing Lions in Junior CIR this season :bounce:

Stefano is real junior. If I am correct, he is something around 27?Quote:

We will see, for the moment Stefano will strugle ''just'' with FWD.....
I also think this is not the best choice for him...
Yes, it's not a step forward for Albertini for sure. But still it's better than nothing...

reigning champion Umberto Scandola - Skoda Fabia S2000 (with support from Skoda Italia),
Paolo Andreucci - Peugeot 208 T16,
Giandomenico Basso - Ford Fiesta R5 LPG-fueled,
Alessandro Perico - Peugeot 208 T16,
Rudy Michelini - Citroen DS3 R5.
Luca Rossetti is working on some program in CIR too, but nothing is confirmed.
The new Pug is waiting for Ucci :)

Rally il Ciocco entry list :

A great entrylist :bounce:
What a big battle in 2WDs between R3s and R2s to expect :eek:
Nice to see Giacomo Cunial in a 208 R2 after his promising season in the old Citroën C2 R2 Max ;)
Any news about Campedelli this year?Quote:

Anyway, the 49-years old Paolo is still in the mood...Great reward for all his previous results and also big responsibility for him with first world official outing with new Peugeot weapon...
I'm surprised that nearly nobody wants to drive Mitusbishi Lancer in Italian Championship. In other countries it is the most popular rally car.Quote:

I'm not surprised at all. Mitsubishi are used only where there are fast asphalt or gravel stages. In Italy and France there are almost none in asphalt events. That's nothing new. It has always been like that (with few exceptions).Quote:

OK, You are right, there were more of them before S2000 came in. 2006 is 8 years a go at the very start of S2000 era...
You weren't wrong at all, as in France I can't remember a Lancer doing well on a tarmac event, even before S2000. Of course, it's not about french cup, where some of them can fight for podiums, depending of the drivers.
Only in Le Touquet if I remember correctly, Delanoue finished 5th or something like that. But that's closer to belgian roads than other french roads.
France is a different story. Group N was never pupular there. But Italy? Some really great drivers used to drive group N cars. Andreucci, Travaglia, Longhi, Aghini, Dallavilla, Cantamessa, Perego, Dati, Fiorio, Cunico, Sottile, Ricci and many others used to drive Mitsubishis and Subarus. Now, all of a sudden, all those cars are gone.
It's not all of a sudden. The last time these guys drove gr.N cars was already years a go.
Last full CIR season with Lancer for Travaglia was 2007, for Andreucci, Longhi and Aghini 2008 etc. That's already 6-7 years...
