More R5 cars

Marcos Ligato seems to be close to get one of the three Citroën C3 R5 from that the Israel family own in Chile. The car is from 2019 and it would be buy by Tango Rally team. Ligato said that the idea is to have the car ready for the Rally Argentina event in april 16-18.



Miguel Baldoni seems to be moving too to the new top category, as news say that he would be driving a second Hyundai R5 from Point Cola team.

My friends at Point Cola Racing, told me that the Skoda from CBTech are using the evo2 engine, but the rest of the car remains unupdated. Meanwhile the Hyundai will get an updated version of the engine for the next race, as it was very noticeable the lack of final speed compared with the Skoda cars.


If all this become a reality, we will have six R5 cars and a Ford Fiesta waiting for a driver.
