Enge finaly can't drive Rally Vysočina because of his agreement with Aston Martin.
Tonight one of the beautiest rally in Czech republic is starting. There are some changes in the end. For example Jan Černý will drive Evo IX from R.A.M. Team instead of Peugeot 206 RC.
5 stages today including two passes through 25,5 km long very hard stage Kohout, one in the dark.
Starting order will be here: http://mmcr.vysledky-rally.cz/rallys...ov/1etapa.html

Go Roman Kresta :bounce:
There are some storms and very heavy rain in Czech republic now. Usualy for few minutes it's absolutely no chance to drive, after that the weather improves and it only rains. I hope it's getting better before start...
Entry list for Rally Vysočina Telč, next round of Rallysprint Championship:

Web camera from České Budějovice to check weather: http://www.c-budejovice.cz/cz/Strank...y.aspx?camId=4
Ok :)
Real rally started. Weather is changeble. Somewhere dry, somewhere wet...
Tarabus is setting some good times sofar, what happened with Stajf on stage2? :(
I think that he is just cautious because they finished completely new car built day and night all the time since Šumava crash only this week.
But... the true challenge is SS3/5 which is veeeery hard and some heavy rain is reported in the last part.
Votava had turbo problems on SS1 and Kurka some troubles in SS2.
Mirek why aren't you out there?
University needs some work from me :D
Karel Trojan is stopped on SS3 (last year he crashed there although the stage was shorter and different)...
Edit: Changing flat tyre.
This stage is hardcore as usual. 1 crash and 11 punctures from first 42 crews through!
Wowh, looks like a very difficult stage. ;) Kresta extending his lead tough.
Why is Jan Černy so slow?
I know it's a new car but still he's very slow
He probably had at least one puncture or off in SS3. he lost a lot of time but many crews lost. Anyway, this is maybe the hardest stage in entire championship and not the place to learn new car. He didn't even tested...
Habaj was stopped in road section before SS3 and retired. Svačina crashed out, Zedník electronics failure, Čermák broke wheel. All the rest time loses are probably because of punctures and offs.
SS4 in about 10 minutes :D
Černý completed bad day... crashed on SS4. No damage to the car but stucked off road. Will continue tomorrow.
Šlehofer, Liška, Tuček and Mifka were given time for SS3 by marschals because they were given yelow flag (Trněný was changing wheel in narrow place).
Trojan, Pantálek, Červenka and Dunovský retired after SS3 because of technical problems.
Pech attacked hard in the night and fough some time back! Tarabus passed Peták on SS5.
Peták had brake troubles in SS3.
Pech wins the last stage! :)
Odložilík had overheating troubles in SS3. Pech has broken finger. Štajf had some electronics issues and also used wrong tyres.
After SS5 Kresta leads in front of Ašin by 9 seconds ;)
It seems it will be another nice fight
Šlehofer have engine problems and retires :(
In SS3 most of the crews hit the same stone. They cutted one corner more and more till they started hitting hidden rock in grass. Then there were traces of cutting straight into rock and that was like a trap for others.
Star of the day for me is Tarabus.
First onboards on http://www.mediasport.cz
Big differences on first stage of today, Kresta is 17 sec faster as Pech. :eek:
It's quite common that Kresta attacks on the first stage of the day and quite dangerous legendary stage Malonty is good place to attack if You have enough selfconfidence :)
Anyway, on the last stage yesterday Pech was pushing very much, his co-driver told that it was scary. Kresta said they were going safe and that they underestimated Pech's speed. Orsák lost wheel 1,5 km from the end but managed to finish (broken screws).
Kresta is allready 39 sec in front of Pech after stage 8, looks like no big battle for victory.
Nice photos from first leg: http://www.ewrc.cz/ewrc/fotogalery.p...tograf=7&all=1
Běhálek retired (SS10) - gearbox :(
Last stage is life now, so probably Kresta will take a rather easy win this time. ;)
There is still a big fight for 5th place between Barvík, Orsák and Odložilík and for 9th between Jelínek and Peták. Possibly still Valoušek may be third... ;)
Last besttime is for Valousek, but victory goes to Kresta. ;)
Orsák stopped in last stage! Mechanical problem officialy but lost wheel unofficialy :(
EDIT: Wheels screws broke second time in the rally...
