Ladies and gentlemen... we have a new maiden overall winner in Czech lands. Something very very special
Before Rally Hustopeče it was expected that a big battle will rage for the victory because Jan Kopecký is on Sardinia and Václav Pech hasn't been dominating the rest of the field anymore like when he was younger (probably the Fiesta limits him in a certain way as well). It was exactly like that and the rally was overloaded with drama. There were three rally leaders and six stage winners.
The early leader was Černý followed by Grzyb, Koči and Pech. In the second night section Mareš won both stages and got into the lead. Pech lost 40 seconds with broken driveshaft (and two spins out of that), Koči retired behind the finish of the loop due to double puncture (it's not allowed to drive on three wheels on the road section). Grzyb got a 30 second penalty for taking a shortcut on SS1 (see here: https://youtu.be/QszvQOzMuBo?t=222 ). Jakeš broke three concrete poles of a fence but luckily without any functional damage. Therefore after the first leg it was Mareš - Černý +3,5 - Jakeš +30,3.
In the second leg Mareš further extended his lead and took the victory. Černý retired on the very last stage with a broken transmission after a puncture. Jakeš would be therefore second but he also retired but this time behind the finish of the very last stage! He wasn't able to start the engine. He was lucky in the first leg but very unlucky in the end. Pech got a puncture and had to change a wheel. As a result he finished only 10th. Koči restarted to get points for the second leg into the Slovak championship (they give points for each day separately) and won the second leg ahead of Grzyb in Slovak standings.
Final standings look therefore like this:
1. Mareš (Fabia R5) 1:22:56,1
2. Dohnal (Focus WRC) +1:05,8
3. Grzyb (Fabia R5) +1:15,7 (30 sec penalty)
4. Štajf (Polo R5) +1:23,6
5. Odložilík (Fabia R5) +1:36,3
6. Rujbr (Fabia R5) +1:44,0
7. Březík (Fabia R5) +1:54,1 (5 sec penalty)
8. Vlček (i20 R5) +2:13,8
9. Pospíšilík (Fabia R5) +2:57,2
10. Pech (Fiesta R5) +3:23,0 (broken driveshaft and tyre change on stage)
Jan Talaš (208 R2) easily won 2WD. Stejskal (Clio R3T), who was the closest to Talaš, crashed. Semerád (Adam R2) crashed after he encountered a concrete anti-cut thrown by gr.N car of Hrobský into the middle of the road (see here: https://www.ewrc-results.com/quickp/...18719488_n.jpg ). Strangely somehow seven crews managed to avoid it.Last edited by Mirek; 15th June 2019 at 14:55.

Rally Hustopeče is the most specific and the most spectacular rally in our country and also the onboards are great. Some of them here:
Jakeš SS1 (with a close call for a pheasant): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aTJ1i38vNwc
Pech SS2 (with a great jump at 3:35 and near roll at 5:20): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WWwZcuXK7CU
Mareš SS8 (not that nice half-circuit stage): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HuZ-eMGl7fwStupid is as stupid does. Forrest Gump

There was one very lucky man in Hustopeče. The driver Braňo Mičko had to undergo a surgery of his left shoulder but fortunately nothing worse happened to him!
