Livery of the Invelt Alpine for Delecour.



According to Jírovec they want to invest into the development of the Alpine in a similar way they did with Mini RRC. Pech already started testing. In the future the Invelt car is meant for Jírovec jr. who is now drivng the Adam cup but I guess that Pech will drive it somewhere too.

Unfortunately the engine of the 306 Maxi broke already on shakedown. The rally was won by Kopecký who had little opposition this time. Behind him there was a battle between Pech and Mareš but in the end Pech won. Stříteský was fighting for fourth with Černý and when it finally looked like he shook Černý off he crashed in flying finish of the penultimate stage. So Černý took the fourth. Delecour drove nicely and fast and finished eighth overall.

1. Kopecký (Fabia R5 Evo) 1:15:00,8
2. Pech (Focus WRC) +25,0
3. Mareš (Fabia R5 Evo) +38,5
4. Černý (Fabia R5 Evo) +1:16,4
5. Odložilík (Fabia R5 Evo) +2:06,2
6. Jakeš (Fabia R5) +2:23,7
7. Březík jr. (Fabia R5) +2:30,1
8. Delecour (Alpine A110 RGT) +3:55,1
9. Trněný (Fiesta R5) +4:44,9
10. Trojan (Fabia R5) +5:35,6

2WD
1. Číž (208 R2) 1:26:35,6
2. Soldát (208 R2) +42,8 (10 sec penalty)
3. Lukašík (Fiesta Rally4) +50,6
4. Ocelka (Clio Rally5) +59,7
5. Peták (Mégane Maxi) +1:09,7 (30 sec penalty)

Notable retirememnts: Stříteský (Fabia R5) - broken radiator, Dohnal (306 Maxi) - engine, Cvrček (Fabia R5) - missed a flying finish when going off :-)))

Here is at least a video of Dohnal testing the Maxi: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9cst...ture=emb_title (his last words: Awesome, that's porn! )

Despite worse entry list Rally Morava was a spectacular event: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dcEkCGN_494
