A question about this Ypres Rally Masters - maybe someone knows. Will it run on the same stages but as a separate timetable like the historic rally? Or will it open the road before the main field? Hoping for the latter.

Not known yet. I think it will between the 00 and 0 they only do one run of stages.

Tomorrow there's the Sezoens Rally, already the 5th event of the BRC. The stages are nearly identical to the previous edition, marked by the well-known gravel sections. 3 loops of 5 stages are driven, totalling 154km SS. 14 R5 cars are starting, of which 4 VW Polo (Princen, Cherain, Snijers, Schmelcher), 6 Fabia (Fernémont, Verschueren, Bédoret, De Mevius, Cracco, Van Loon), 2 Fiesta (Wright, Becx, Vanden Abeele) and one i20 (Van Iersel). In R2 the usual drivers (Van der Marel, Munster, Pyck, and a few more).

Didn't realise they shared the cars with the DRM. When's closing date for entries? Any chance of a Cherain, Fernamont or de Mevius, if nothing more exotic?

Edit: 17th June, apparently

Cherain and Fernemont already confirmed to skip Ypres because of being to expensive. And maybe aswell that the Masters gets more attention than the actual rally.

Yesterday we had the "Rally van Wervik", local event close to Ypres, with similar stages. Logically, a lot of drivers were there to prepare for Ypres. Verschueren was leading into the last stage, but had a spin and lost the victory to Bédoret. Freddy Loix became third.
