Mirek whats your opinion about Pech vs Kopecky?
It will be very tight battle.
The only thing I can say about that is that I'm looking forward to the fight.
I think Kopecky will need Skoda to play their jokers.. what date was Fabia R5 homologated?
1st April 2015.

Superb livery of Jírovec

I know nothing about the driver, but it's a beautiful car indeed!
This car is ex-Pech's "rocket". Mr. Jírovec is owner of Invelt company and also of the team for which Pech drives. Normally Jírovec drives historic BMW M3 E30 in Rothmans colors. He is gentleman driver, roughly 60 years old. For sure he isn't able to be in top ten with the car but since we have 6 Porsches entered for Valašská rally there may be some nice competition among them (nearly all are driven by gentleman drivers).
Here are his best recent results:
2016 Historic Rally Vltava - 6th overall including ERC, 2nd MČR Historic
2016 Barum Star Rally Historic - 3rd overall
2016 Rally Legend San Marino - 16th overall
2015 Rally Legend San Marino - 6th overall

New video from Kopecký's test: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qd2-7ZLkjF8
Action starts at 2 minutes.
That's Barum rally road. Usually this road is part of stage called either Halenkovice or Žlutava (shorter version) ;)
In 2012 Juho made a spectacular sideways jump there :)
AFAIK nothing that serious ;)

Sped up? The car also sounds a little different to normal.
I watched it low-res on my phone but it wasn't speed up for sure. The superfast road in the open area is another Barum stage - Biskupice (not used in last two years or so).
Presumably he is testing there the same spec car he will use this weekend and not some of the joker bits.
Definitely seems louder to me too, but maybe it's the atmospheric conditions.

He had a bad crash last weekend in test event Žiželice. I don't know if they are able to start in Valašská rally. Hopefully yes.
Valašská rally live results tomorrow here (starting at 12:25)

Jakeš crashed on SS1. Kopecký way faster than Pech so far, Černý on the same pace as Pech.
Yes, crashed & rolled:

Maybe Pech is taking some time to get used to his new car..
Cerny impressive.. he seems to have made some real progress.
Cerny's car is not official,right?
Lets see what Pech can do at 2nd leg.
For sure Cerny impressive whatever fabia he drives.
In the 208 CZ cup Dohnal has a small lead margin on Wagner ;)
Mares because of penalties, and Dunovsky are way far behind though :mark:
