Final round of the Hungarian Championship ended today, amid big controversy as Kazár was excluded, because yesterday he didn't stop at Velenczei's crash (the crew was still in the car, as they were having trouble getting out), then he didn't stop at the next radio point, just at the stage finish. When he received the papers of the exclusion, he tore them up. It is possible he will get some sort of a suspension. Anyways, results:
1. Hadik-Kertész, Ford Fiesta R5 Evo 1:11:21.7
2. Spitzmüller-Béres, Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X R4 +41.2
3. Vincze-Kuti, Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IX R4 +1:07.8
4. Bodolai-Molnár, Ford Fiesta R5 +1:31.9
5. Balogh-Holczer, Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IX +1:45.4
6. Kiss-Varga, Ford Fiesta R5 Evo +2:00.9
7. Matics-Zejda, Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IX +3:17.0
8. Lovász-Kürti, Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IX +3:20.5
9. Rongits-Hannus, Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IX +4:04.3
10. Maricsek-Notheisz, Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IX +4:53.1
Notable retirements: ifj.Tóth - crashed radiator on chicane, Ollé - slid off into a valley, Kazár - excluded.
With all victorious R5 cars around Europe, it is funny (and sad too..) that in Slovenia on the Rally Idrija (final round for the championship) won Rok Turk with P 208 R2!!!
Of course this does not reduce Rok's magnificient drive (I spectaced it), he was already on the first glance very fast, drove very clean lines, made no mistake.....defenitely one of the fastest FWD drivers in this region.
Where in Europe it is still allowed to drive a 997 GT3 apart from R-GT? I know from CZ and Belgium but what about the rules f.i. in Spain, France, Italy, Hungary, Poland? PN welcome. Thx.
In Portugal unrestricted GT’s are allowed but very few drivers rally them, because the main championship is half gravel half tarmac. There’s also a separate GT series, with only 2 guys competing. Gt’s are more popular on the tarmac roads of the Portuguese Madeira islands, and some 911’s drivers are still winning local events.
The same happens at the Canarias islands and on others Spanish regional rally series, but in Spain’s main championship 911’s were forced to use a 40mm restrictor, becoming uncompetitive.
