    Great season from Kopecky. Five WRC2 starts, five wins. Six starts in Czech National Championship, six wins (one of them also ERC). 100% wins.

    And 19 podiums in a row since the Tour de Corse in April 2017 (power steering failure)

    Maybe someone will be interested in seeing Kajto's video report from day 2. He was 4th in WRC2 at the finish line of Rally of Turkey, but without all the power steering problems he would have had a chance to win this category. Actually, this rally was so strange, that each of the top 4 drivers (Kopecky, Tempestini, Ingram, Kajto) had a chance to win at some point

    Here is the video:

    Not very understandable with google translator but an article and an interview with Kopecký after the finish: https://sport.idnes.cz/jan-kopecky-t...motorsport_tof

    The article mentions that Tidemand may still appear in Catalunya despite what was claimed by Škoda. Let's see...

    Not much in the interview. He basically said he didn't enjoy this weekend at all.

    Of course Pontus will be there, if he will drive the 2nd Volkswagen Polo GTi R5

    The question is if he is entered to WRC2 or not.

    So championship could be decided by what box VW decide to tick on the entry form. What a mess.

    First Pontus will need to score at least 8 points in Wales.

    According to original plans, Pontus and Jan were set to do different events before Turkey. Turkey was planned as only one event where both drivers will start. On this event, which nobody of them did in the past, should be decided, who will be the champion...

    Is it open secret that Pontus’ definitely starts with Polo in Spain or is it just speculation?

    They said there would be 2 and previous speculation said Pontus and Petter, but now they confirmed Camilli..
