Ingram and Koci were fine surprises, especially the Brit, considering this was his first rall with a 4wd. A faultless rally from Gago and a deserved win at U27; maybe this result will open him the door to more ERC events. Sesks speed was impressive; we’ll have to get used to the way his name is pronounced… overall, a nice season start at the beautiful and challenging Azorean stages and a special applause to RTP Açores for their broadcasts; it’d be great to have more TV live stages in the next ERC events.
Kind of like saying desks(plural) but with a different sounding e. You can hear it here at 2:21(that's his father by the way).Quote:

I also remember Him calling Griebel as Greibel. It just surprises me that there seems to be no effort/preparations on these things considering how big Eurosport is and how wide their audience is.
But okay, enough of this. It's not like I am a mad grammar nazi, it just really amused me when I heard it.
Great video!!!Quote:

who is going to take it from him ? the other contenders are not even capable of beating the useless village boys of each event....Quote:

Overall ERC(R5) in it's current form is pretty much pointless, which is a shame.
N.O.T's Village nobodies are the only ones who are going to be having a change against Lukyanuk who is going to take the whole cake piece by piece, unless he somehow manages to drop it on the ground (or focus in WRC2).
Most of the current hot under 28yo R5 drivers are currently driving in WRC2 and it leaves drivers like Loubet (if he does the whole ERC calendar, I haven't checked), Ingram who was surprisingly fast here (Does he even have a confirmation for whole season?), Griebel (who is really struggling with the Peugeot), Koci who has driven mostly in Czech's championship to have a change for the title.
But all of them need to show their speed against Lukyanuk and the village nobodies to show that they have the speed to compete in WRC2.
Atleast ERC3 has something good going on for them. Opel factory team + village nobodies and other young talents trying to prove their pace in R2 which I think is better than WRC3 (not counting few of the JWRC drivers).
Actually, take the Skoda works team out and WRC2 has been pretty weak so far this year. Maybe it will be different when the main European season starts.
I agree though that this year's ERC title is Luky's to lose. It will be more interesting to see how drivers like Ingram and Koci develop in U28. Ahlin and Yates started well in Azores but then faded a bit but it's quite a specific event so let's see..
There hasnt been a big competition for the overall ERC Title since it was the IRC.
You cant blame Kajto for moving on and some other's that might fight Lukyanuk cant get the funding for a decent car or for the full season. Plus the lack of Manu entries is a real shame.
But as RS says its worthwhile to follow to see the Juniors develop.
You can see that later starting cars had advantage on second Grupo Marques stage.Quote:

Andolfi, who didnt do anything well in last years and ERC should suit him more, same like Pieniazek? You can see Avcioglu and Ptaszek on Azores - they understimate level of ERC, they have always focus on WRC2. And in reality, both didnt know basic rules and missed time control... I think that drivers like Ahlin, Koci, Ingram and others in U28 are really good drivers on the very high level. And if they do WRC2, they will be on high positions too. We will see Loubet, he should start in both ERC and WRC2 and will see where he will have bigge chance to better result.Quote:

He did pretty well considering he said his driving was very steady and he was also conservative with his tyre choices.
BTW he has confirmed he will miss some events (Greece & Cyprus) in 2018, but pans to do the full season in 2019.
Not full programme for Åhlin??
Greece and Cyprus are not JERC rounds so no problem to miss those.
But original plan was to do all events, he didnt know about U28 :)
