Róbert Bútor has just unveiled his newly bought C3 WRC. It is the ex-Saintéloc Pirelli test car, chassis #20. He sold his Fabia R5, then got his 306 Maxi part exchanged for the C3. He also mentioned that it is completely rebuilt, as there was a customer for Saintéloc for this season to drive the car in the WRC, but due to Covid the money wasn't enough, and the programme was scrapped.
He said that he plans on driving the car for a few more years before complete retirement. He will do 2-3 rallies in a year, this season he plans on doing Pécs, Veszprém and Mikulás, with public and previously announced test before all of the rallies.
Edit: he also got a very extensive spares package, with 120 rims, 5 sets of body panels, Ogier's and Lappi's setups, etc.
He also mentioned that Ogier's ex-engineer is helping them in the beginnings, and also told them that all the aero upgrade parts and documentation was scrapped when Ogier decided to leave.

IMO there are much more positives than negatives for Kalle from first race weekend in single seaters - in one of the races his best lap was only three tents slower than the fastest drivers...as...
Kalle Rovanpera - rallying's...
