Yes. And I think all 208's had at least one cracked rear window in Ypres too. Anyway Ypres is more brutal than you think for this, with some kicking jumps/bumps, and maybe even more important, the car touching the ground in deep cuts. Up to some 5-10 years ago there were plenty of issues with onboard cameras in cuts due to the forces. And regarding shock-absorbing of the rear window/wing, I think Barum could be an even bigger challenge than Finland...

Béreš sen. Junior is still planning with Quattro Monster S1, but I will prefer to see him in regular race with Mini S2000, which he is using this year in slovakian championship.

According to the press-release from today crews starting in Czech championship may use old-spec. 15" tyres but won't be classified in ERC standings. That means we have for the first time since 2005 two competitive fields in Barum...

We are not happy about that, but situation with tyres is really stupid. FIA made tyres which are ONLY for ERC. And Czech republic is only one which has it mandatory for big championship. If it will be only regular tyre for future, there is no problem. But as Michelin and Pirelli are still producing older type of tyres, this is completely nonsense... So all this is mainly about FIA...

Looks like the same thing we already had at Jänner rallye this year - and probably more intense next year ...
