Who is Igor Gaus??
Local driver , has done a few rallies. Not 100% sure he will start in the 207 ...
No Solowow?!
Solowow didn't start in 1000 Miglia aswell . Weird :D
Maybe he doesn't have enough money!!! :pQuote:

No sponsors this year ! :D
He didn't enter 1000 Miglia
Yes he did, but he canceled his entry when the date change of Elmot was sure.
That's possible :)
In same date as Croatia is Rajd Lotos, round of polish championship. As Michal told that polish championship is his priority this year, he will start in Poland.
Rossetti on entry list of Croatia is also a good reason not to participate ;-)
Why do you think? Last year on Barum Solowow beaten Rossetti :) And on some events Michal wasnt so far from Basso...
PLuto, you forgot that Rossetti had a problem with a car. On stage 13 he lost over 3 min. and before this he was faster over 1,5min than Solowow. And this was his first Barum, Solowow was here for the 6th time. Rosssetti is a higher class driver.
Solowow was not far from Basso because Giandomenico let him :)
It was Rossetti's second start :) Yes, Rossetti is good driver, but Michal made a good progress last year.
Rossetti was also quite a long time in a ditch on SS Pindula ;)
It's not that weird. Solowow will start his limited ERC programme on the Rally of Poland in June. He will not compete in all rounds this year. Polish championship has higher pririty for him this time.Quote:

Do you know Michal's programme in ERC this year? Thanks!!! :)Quote:

Thanks for the information Jarek and Mirek!!!
Jaroslav and Miroslav :)
You are right, I forgot that he also drove a Fiat :-)Quote:

Local heroes Juraj Sebalj, his co-driver Toni Klinc and their new Mitsubishi Lancer were fastest on today's shakedown. Luca Rossetti didn't participate. Maciej Oleksowicz was surprised that on some parts of the route it was snowing (!) and on other parts the weather was sunny. The rally starts on Friday afternoon.

I thought Protasov is a slow driver but he was very good on shakedown :)
Jarek, it wasn't really snowing but hailstones.
Here is a photo from recce of Dimitar Iliev: http://forum.autosport.cz/download/f...=579&mode=view
That is probably before the start of Lukovo stage , it's snow almost during the whole year :) I dont think there will be snow on the stages

Both Bulgarian crews (Iliev and Gyoshev) had an accident and retired in SS2 of the rally. Rossetti is leading after SS2!
Live results here: http://rally-base.com/2010/croatia-rally/
It looks that both bulgarian crews crashed on same place - in chicane, maybe this chicane was missing in their pacenotes?
I'm a bit surprised by Fontana's speed compared to Rosseti.
Fiat was never suitable to fast stages.
I have problem to open live result page?
But here is OK

What a bad start of the season for Iliev. First problems in Bulgaria and now this. He started his season even worse than Kuzaj! :)Quote:
