Strange. The official website of the rally still says "Entry list available soon", but various lists are floating around the Internet. I have just come across this one. Is it right?

Looks like Botka and Tlustak have joined up to enter as a team with Karel Kupec also in the 2wd (although Tlustak is missing this event)

Maybe they want to fight for the teams championship?

I bet the "entry list available soon" will be there for a long time...

A friend corrected my information. Based on the following document it is possible to use some selected cars up to 4 years after the end of homologation in FIA events except WRC ones but only when they have new safety fuel tank (Evo IX, N12 among them). I was told that it's very expensive and therefore most of the cars won't appear in FIA events regardless.

EDIT: According to latest unconfirmed info the fuel tanks are mandatory starting from 2018 and therefore the Evo IXs shall be eligible this year.

I also have a document on this subject, but does not speak specifically to the fuel tank. Do you know more details about it?

"2.7.1.c.ii The cars are in conformity with the technical regulations (Appendix J) in effect on the date of the homologation and must be in good condition of participation, subject to the discretion of the technical Commissioners."

This list was published by FPAK. I think it's not approved by FIA/ERC.
Should have changes with numbers and other things to fix.
Jan Černý is not as U28 driver and it's almost sure that one driver will change car.

The info about gr.N cars - it shall have been decided last week that the rule about safety fuel tank applies only next year.

As things stand I can't see anyone other than SRT winning that title.

Nothing unusual in the history of the rallye...

If Sirmacis competes for the whole season.
