Apparently 158 entries on next week Rally del Friuli(CIR) :)
Entrylist non available yet though...
Great entrylist :D
Forfait from Simone Campedelli(in Friuli this coming week-end) :(
Also forfait for Andrea Nucita(budget problem) :(
After two stages Friuli, Ucci leading with a margin of already 14"9 :bounce:
Steady learning from Perico for his first outing in the 208 T16(4th overall) ;)
Already a mechanical failure leading to retirement for the DS3 R5 of Michelini(between SS1 and 2) :mad:
Ferraroti leading the GrR(7th)and Albertini the Junior R2(8th)...
According to Claudio's live of the rally electronic problems for Basso :(
It's no use saying then the Ford is more reliable than the Peugeot in R5 class :mark:
PS: in historic no luck for "Pedro" who is leading after 4 stages, the engine of his Lancia has cylinder problem and could cost him the retirement :(
I've just arrived back home from holiday, thanks god-Andreucci is leading.
I've read that Basso had problems with bang-system....shame...why did Perego change his evoX for Fiesta R5?? He is not much quicker.....And very fast german driver Kössler with Suby N4....long time since somebody was under first ten with evo/suby on this demanding stages. Even more respectable-Kössler is for the first time on Alpi....
VICTORY for Paolo Andreucci at the Rally del Friuli :bounce:
Giando Basso and Alex Perico finished on the podium... ;)
Big unluck for Umberto Scandola who lost almost 4 minutes after having hit something on the previous stage(possible suspension damage)and finished only 5th... :mark:
Congrats to Ucci-Ussi! Very important victory, especialy for Peugeot with their tragedy at Barum....
Basso can be happy for second position, problems on friday ruined his race.
Perico-slowley gaining coinfidence in new car. Hey, two P208 R5 on podium. Unbelivale...
Umby Scandola-with his mistake on the last stage the fight for championship is totally open.
Huge success for family Re at yesterday's Rally Valli Cuneesi: father Felice won the race itself thanks to misfortune of his biggest rival Corrado Fontana (he suffered double tyre puncture and left without spare...). Because of this victory Felice Re has become also a champion of I.R.C. 2014 trophy. He is a true sportsman and admitted that Corrado is a moral winner, but rally is a complex sport and being just fast is (somethimes) not enough. Anyway, also Felice had in his earlier career his share of bad luck, so this is kind of consolation for all his efforts.
His son Alessandro has become a champion in S2000/RRC/R5 class.
As Italians would say : complimenti ai vincitori-un bravo a Felice Re e Mara Bariani.
Gianluigi Niboli will drive this week-end at Rally San Martino di Castrozza a 208 T16 ;)
This coming week-end Rally Adriatico, event from CIR :)
Andreucci was hit by technical troubles (nothing new for P208 R5 indeed...) at stage 6. Lost more than three minutes. The race is lost for him, probbably also the championship....
Basso was affected by a problem with the pop-off valve, also breen in the same w-end..maybe r5 valves fragile?
I saw on tv the onboard Andreucci with his off: he explained after the video that during braking he heard a strange transmission noise..the braking was strangely too long..maybe axle shaft....but the big problem was that he lost the reverse gear and when he tried to engage it the problem was bigger and so with this maneuver he destroyed the gearbox (27min occured to change it at service). He said that he was with 2 wheels on the ditch but without the problem with reverse gear he could exit without any problem
Holy f****** shit. Is this even real?

That is a miracle.
This coming week-end Rally Due Valli, next round of CIR ;)
Entrylist Rally 2 Valli :)
http://rallyduevalli.it/2valli/
Well, not so bad - 11 S2000/R5 cars, all the top drivers are there, plus comebacks of Caldani and Colombini, it should be an interesting rally...
http://rallyduevalli.it/2valli/image...scrittiCIR.pdf
2 Valli is the last and decisive stage of CIR for drivers classification. scandola vs basso vs andreucci
Scandola needs a miracle now, after 5 SS (out of 12) he has +45 from Andreucci. Basso is at +8.
SS9 Due Valli cancelled due to accident of road cars :mark:
Really heavy rain falling on SS8 Rally Due Valli, last stage of the day :mark:
Andreucci at 2nd leg took big margin.After ss8 33,1 sec to Basso.
2 stages to go tomorrow, Ucci has the championship in his hands, if the car doesn't break down...
Fingers crossed for Ucci and Peugeot, if only for their commitment they deserve a championship win.
A big success for the problematic 208.i think peugeot will advertise a lot ucci's championship.
Ucci won.Congrats!
Congratulations for winning the Italian championship to Paolo, Anna, Pirelli and the whole Peugeot Italia team. Their effort with P208 R5 was finally rewarded.
Andreucci is becoming a true Italian legend-this is already his eight !! championship crown!
Respect to Paolo.....
Cause i don't know italian can somebody explain what the fuck happen here!bad weekend for rallies!!!
