R5 regs to 2018 will be exciting

Really? When will they be published?

Presumably will be designed to narrow the gap to the new WRCars a little.

Fabia Evo1?

The other R5s have now all had an evolution, and Fiesta will soon have an Evo2 on the market.

Any plans for an Evo1 for the Fabia, or will Skoda wait until they see the Evo2 from Ford, and see if they are passed ?

Evo1 will be arround May

This talks about Evo, Evo 1 or Evo 2 are stupid. It is only marketing issue, all these things works as jokers, VO, VK...

Yes, i think that will allow current R5 to decrease gap to WRC

I disagree with you.
If people do not have an upgrade/Evo installed, and does better in an old Fiesta than a driver with evo2 installed, it says something about the driver. Nice to know for us who follows the rallies and compare results.

A good thing also for your database I would think.

You cannot find what is installed in the car. Like I told, nothing like evo kit doesnt exist. There are only some parts, which are adjusted. But it is not necessary to put all the parts immediatelly there. Any mentioning of "evo" in any results or database means nothing, it is nonsense...

Is it over for Abbring at Hyundai then in terms of a competition programme? And are Hyundai not going to place someone in either WRC2 or ERC to promote their R5?

Maybe I'm wrong, but aren't joker/evo parts fitted as a package? Probably that's why some PSA R5's owners didn't install engine improvements from last year evo kit; they would be forced to also use the faulty power steering that came along.

There are some parts as package in one joker, but others not. Thats why it is nonsense to talk about "evo" versions. It was nonsense with S2000 and it is nonsense with R5.

Wasn't it mandatory to fit the evo parts in S2000? I remember problems for Vanneste when he wanted to start in Ypres without the evo bumpers.
