    Actually Škoda's Czech championship is paid from completely different sources. It's not done using Motorsport department budget but it's fully paid by marketing department of Škoda Czech Republic local office. The car is also serviced by Kopecký's own team instead of the works team. Therefore events run in CZ are largely irrelevant to whatever they do in WRC except when there is a clash of calendars.
