Tomorrow night and saturday there's the Spa Rally, 2nd round of the Belgian championship. Live results should be found here: http://www.sparally.com/nl/node/44
Bob De Jong already crashed on shakedown... 11 R5 cars left, also Mini RRC (with WRC wing), 2 Fabia WRC's and a few GT's. Marc Duez is entering a Porsche 997 GT3 from Romain Dumas. Some good FWD cars as well, interesting entry is Gryazin with a 208 R2.
De Jong...

According to this:

Cherain withdrew after some problems with brakes and rear wheel. He's not on the same level as Loix and Princen anyway, is he?http://www.rallymadness.prv.pl - rally photos and movies!

I think Loix is going to win it. He has 23 seconds over Princen after SS10. Still 7 stages to go.
Very bad rally for Gryazin. He is 56th overall.http://www.rallymadness.prv.pl - rally photos and movies!

Gryazin continues, there was some mistake in the timing system when he was mentioned as retired for a while. He just set a great time in SS14 fastest of all FWD even ahead of crazy Hermann.

Looking at the results it's certainly not just a curious detail that Spa stages are close to Czech ones... 5 Škoda 4WD on start and all of them in top 8!
1. Loix (Fabia R5) 1:41:21,6
2. Princen (208 T16 R5) +39,9
3. Verschueren (Fabia R5) +2:31,5
4. Bouche (Fabia R5) +3:03,0
5. De Cecco (208 T16 R5) +3:33,2
6. Dilley (DS3 R5) +5:11,7
7. Allart (Fabia WRC) +5:43,4
8. Cunin (Fabia WRC) +8:48,0
9. Albert (Evo IX A8) +9:07,3
10. Martin (Evo IX A8) +9:19,1
Cherain (Fiesta R5), Demarschalk (DS3 R5) retired, De Jong (DS3 R5) crashed on shakedown.Stupid is as stupid does. Forrest Gump

But not today, just unlucky... "Obviously, we lost 2m40.4s and we are 2m38.3s behind the leader. So you don’t need to be that good in math to know that we could be in the lead of the rally today....
