Rally Islas Canarias 2018

[RS]

I have the feeling that Luky has learnt to drive sensible this year and isn’t being pushed too hard so far. Gryazin might give him a run for his money on gravel though (remember he beat Rovanpera on Liepaja last year)

Ingram showed real potential on Azores but it’s probably one year early to push for wins.

Biggest disappointment for me is that Griebel couldn’t put together a proper programme in a decent car, he did a great job last year.

He did beat Kalle but that was Kalle's first rally in Fiesta with little (50km's or so) testing. But he also gave him run for his money during Latvia's national season when they were both driving Fabias.
And yeah Ucci seems to be the only one making 206 working for them and Griebel seems to be struggling with it a lot.

Has Griebel done any DRM rounds with it yet?

Support of a national supporter might seem attractive but if he’s really serious about a career in rallying then I doubt the German Championship is the place to be, let alone it seems that as part of the deal he had to use 208 in ERC, which didn’t go too well on Azores.

Ewrc shows 1 drm race before the azores for him, retired due to "engine", 206 seems to be struggle for most of the drivers.

I have nothing to say about Loubet and Suarez, have they actually won anything or shown any speed?

Suarez won Peugeot 208 Trophy in France a few years ago and that opened the door to WRC and ERC for him. As far as I know he didn't win anything important in those championships despite being backed by Peugeot.

Yes, he has. Unfortunately his Pug broke down already before the first stage!

You're right about the loss of Griebel this season... and the year before we lost an ever better young talent, Ralfs Sirmacis.

It's such a shame such guys cant get the funding. The ERC could be so much better and the competition for Lukyanuk would be real.

The stupid thing with Griebel is that he does have some funding - enough to buy him a drive in a 2016 WRCar on a WRC round. I guess that would have been enough to buy him three or four ERC events in a Fabia.

This weekend he's doing Sulingen.

Bit of a strange U28 prize really... it would be better just being the cash. He might then be able to do the ERC again and try to win it outright.
