I don’t think the C3 needs rehabilitation, it’s a good car now. Straight away started better than the 208/DS3 and with some honing this year it’s now one of the quickest with the right driver behind the wheel. Perhaps not as strong/reliable as a Fabia though

I agree, the C3 R5 has been a decent package since it's introduction. They have all had their weak points when first introduced.

Most R5's have teething problems. Skoda's have probably had the least and their team is dedicated to the Fabia R5 with no WRC car to run at the same time. Coincidence ?

Yep, huge congrats to Lopez, Rozada and Sports&You. Amazingly, they didn’t plan to enter the spanish tarmac series as their main focus is the new mixed championship (SCER).
Btw, Sports&You its also told to be running Sean Gelael C3 R5 in the last Indonesian rally of the season. Apparently Gelael is a local hero, known for racing in international formulas series. https://www.revistascratch.com/inter...n-gelael-53479Rally addict since 1982

2 or more Fabia EVO did arrive to Printsport for customers. One is probably ex.factory because it has green splitter in front and also some green parts in back with "Skoda Auto" etc stickers.

Today without bigger drama for Rally1, so expecting tomorrow lot of retirements maybe, because there is NEVER rally without issues. Let's see guys, favorizing Ogier for the win probably, depends on...
