Back from a great East Belgian Rally. Yesterday we had one of the biggest fights ever in Belgian rallying. On the first 6 stages, 6 different drivers (5 different cars) each set one quickest time (Loix-FabiaR5, Princen-208R5, Verschueren-DS3R5, Kobus-FabiaR5, Van Woensel-LancerWRC, Allart-Fabia WRC). After 6 stages both Loix and Van Woensel retired with mechanical problems, while Allart started losing more and more time. So the battle for the victory continued between Princen, Verschueren and Kobus, it lasted until the very last stage. The difference between 1st and 2nd has never been bigger than 2,3 seconds... Congratulations to Hermen Kobus, well deserved victory, he also proved that the Kumho tyres must be very good, as he was nearly as quick as Loix in the same car, and could beat equally fast Princen-208R5. Verschueren was a nice surprise, in Omloop van Vlaanderen he already set a few fastest stage times, but now he really proved that he has a place among the top drivers in Belgium, it took a long time with the DS3R5, but he's finally there.
Some photos of the event will follow later.
