Kenotec Ypres Rally 23-25 June 2016

Lukyanuk also on the list now! According to pluto he ran out of money, so he's probably looking for extra money to get him on the startline.. Fingers crossed! Positive thing is that HRacing already will be there with Cherain so that would probably make it a bit cheaper.

According to Arnautov's wifes tweet, their participation is confirmed

More good news. When's the deadline for entries and the publishing of the official list? it's only just struck me that this is getting fairly close!

Also wondering if anyone has a plan of attack for Saturday's stages? I was surprised at how easy it was to get around last year so am feeling fairly ambitious, but I've not done the Saturday before so am on the lookout for good spots and combinations of stages that work well.

Westouter and Kemmelberg almost look within walking distance of each other...

Alexey Lukyanuk got support and the possibility to enter fifth ERC event – Kenotec Ypres Rally 2016
Russian pilot now stands second in the overall list of European Rally Championship, reducing the gap to the leader last week to 15 points. Though there were no further plans for the season as the budget for initially planned three events eventually was over.
Regretfully RPM team and Elementy.ru project cannot further support 100% of the events.
Alexey Lukyanuk: “I do not have enough words to explain how grateful I am to Russian Performance Motorsport team, Elementy.ru project and Boris Zimin for our successful cooperation, starting 2014. It is because of their support we won Estonian Championship 2014 and got a chance to continue our program in ERC. “Bronze” in the debut season was gained not only by the crew. I hope it is just a pause in our relations and we will have a lot of events ahead!”
Next event for Alexey Lukyanuk and Alexey Arnautov in Belgium will be supported by unnamed businessman. “I just want to help guys in such a situation, I don’t need to advertise myself or company”, explained he.
So, Ford Fiesta R5 will be on the track in the same recognizable livery already in two weeks.

Hollebeke has a lot of good spots. One of the most challeging stages in Belgium. With this years timing you can do at least 4 stages on saterday.
Normal we will do Hollebeke - Watou or Westouter - Hollebeke - Reninge or Watou. I think its also possible to go from Reninge to Westouter.

This is turning out to be a great entry list!

Bouffier listed in a DS3 according to ewrc-results.com

Was hoping for a 208, but either way; I think that makes 30x R5/S2000s
