Here they are in one word - Lukyanuk!

I have seen only three stages. We planned four but somehow a good lunch won over second pass of Březová And I also made a stupid navigation mistake in planning a walking path through some forest which in the end didn't cost us any stage but made us really tired...

I haven't seen a single crazy thing from Lukyanuk and so haven't my friends on other places! He just drives extremely well, very precise with no signs of overdriving at all. Kopecký looked more aggressive where I was (only fast places - smooth, rough and even some serious cutting). In the end we all agreed that Lukyanuk looked clearly fastest of all.

What is very clear is that Lukyanuk's and not only his Fiesta works better on rough surface, bumps and under heavy braking than Fabia of Kopecký. There are rumors about new evolution of dampers in several Fiestas R5 and it may well be true because they work awesome. It also looks like Fiestas brake better. Regarding engine I would still bet on Fabia.

By the way in JERC it was the opposite - Ingram looked quite a lot more aggressive and flamboyant than extremely clean and calm Griebel and he was still faster. The most flamboyant junior guy was for sure Gryazin.
