Kalle Rovanpëra with Fiesta WRC at Bologna Motorshow???
Great show - Bettega Memorial
Nice, Andreucci already testing for '17 and a 10th champ title!

I'm happy he is staying with Peugeot. It may be a troubled and problematic vehicle but I'd be sad to see it go. Hope someone can persuade Peugeot sport to give it the love and the speed it deserve.Quote:

Tbh honest, I'm not happy for him... I'm happy for the Peugeot Hahaha. You're right, it is by far the slowest of the R5s. Only Ucci makes the difference.Quote:

Unfortunately this year Italian championship is not shaping as thrilling as it has been latest years.
Scandola didn't found an agreement with Skoda, Basso also seems he's not going to participate.
If so, Ucci is going to win it in reverse but will not be that great for spectators.
Also nobody have news from Campedelli, whom was rumored getting the place of Scandola at Skoda, but nothing official as been decided yet, and Ciocco is withing a month.
Hyundai R5 will debut at CIR with Chentre-Florean. For sure they will participate at Ciocco and Sanremo.
Soon there will be news about Skoda Motorsport Italy driver. Scandola seems will not participate unfortunately. Let's hope he will.
Perico in, still no news from Basso and Scandola :(
Perico with Fabia R5Quote:

No CIR for Basso who should have a program at WRC2.
Scandola will participate at a rally in Ajacco (Corsica) with Skoda Fabia r5 of Skoda Italia (wrc2 for hiim as well or a preparation for CIR?)
Scandola suprisingly close to sign with Skoda Italia and renew the partnership.

Great news!Quote:

A big pity the scoring system and all the stupid rules are ruining what could have been a very good championship
Here I am, again. I know I'm monopolizing this thread my friend. But I have another rumor to share with you.
Kalle Rovampera is rumored to participating at CIR as well. I don't think it will be at every event (since ciocco is just 3 weeks away) but if italian authorities will give the authorization he could be there for a number of event.
I repeat it's just rumor but not a little one.

Fun fact: Scandola have been the gravel crew for Basso in Monte this year he said Basso is a friend and he was glad to be his gravel crew. He also wished him all the best in WRC2.
That's what you call a gentleman.
Scandola running this week-end in Corsica(Rallye Pays Ajaccien)but seems to have retired with mechanical problem :confused:

Italy Admits Under-Age Rally Drivers
Revised regulations from the Italian federation will permit foreign rally drivers under the age of 18 to compete in their country.
Conditions are that the driver must produce the written consent of both parents, the driver must pass successfully a driving test at the Federal School, the codriver must be over 18 and holder of a a driving license and international license, and the codriver must drive the road sections, immediately after leaving the time control zone.
During the reconnaissance the juvenile driver may be transported in the car as a third person but not drive the car.
Following the permission granted by his native Finnish federation to allow 16 year old Kalle Rovanpera to compete in his own country, Rovanpera has recently been testing in Italy on tarmac and gravel, with different R5 specification cars, in the hope that Italian federation officials would permit him to compete in their country as well.
Interesting to note that both Jari-Matti Latvala and Mikko Hirvonen both spent time competing on small events in Italy in their early days, albeit not so young as Rovanpera will be.

Interesting. According to @autosprint, Kalle Rovanperä could challenge the Italian Championship with a 208 T16 R5 teaming with Andreucci. #CIR
Seems to be sure, would only miss Targa Florio
https://t.co/hdqYfj1lu4
FANTASTIC to see young Rovanperä in CIR with Peugeot !!! :bounce:
I just discovered the "rumour" on polish website Autoklub today ;)
