S2000 summary

And if Michelin is better? Arctic is important too for him, it is not a test. And also maybe there are different rulles in national champ than in WRC in case of spyke length...

You're right...Sohlberg's priority is national championship not WRC(unlike a certain Patrik Sandell for example) ;)

Four S2000s on entrylist of this coming week-end's Rally dei Castelli romani(Italy) :D :D

Tonino di Cosimo(Grande Punto)
Claudio de Cecco(207)
Fabio Mezzatesta(Grande Punto)
Marco Cassara(Grande Punto)

No news on the Toyota of Grifone? What about Fontana, what will he do in 08?

Rumours say that he is interested to repeat his ERC campaign again, but that's what I heard a long time ago.

The only thing I know about Grifone is that Didier Autiol will do several IRC events with their car. They wonder if to use new Auris or Punto since they said Corolla to be too down on power especialy on tarmac. It is hard to make a tip which rallys he will compete in because his Madagaskar rallying has only one date colision with IRC - Sanremo.

Of course it will be based on the new Fiesta, but a lot of the basis and lessons identified can be carried across !

WRC-models of Pirelli are not in sale, you can`t buy them!

Apparently Aris Vovos had a test with a Grande Punto S2000 :confused:

I hope Peugeot-Sport Greece is alsa planning a 207 S2000 for 2008... :rolleyes:

Aris Vovos already run in two rallies in Greece with Procar Grande Punto. Unfortunately at the second one, Paladio Rally in December, he had a serious accident. Vovos fell in coma after he hardly hit a wall and four next crews did not stop at his car, although the codriver El Em was showing them the SOS sign.

The original article: http://www.autosport.cz/clanek.php?cl=5887

Three of the crews lost their racing licenses for 2008, the fourth one has two-year warning, because they apologised and admitted their failure just after the rally.
