Neubauer accident on street section between stages 1 and 2 (colliding with a civil car, not his fault).

Julian Wagner already 50 sec ahead of his brother, on his first rally with an R5 car and only his second appearance at Jänner Rallye (last year he had to retire rather early). Baumschlager obviously took the right choice when choosing him as driver for BRR.

Julian lost 1,5 minutes in the last stage with gearbox problems but he kept comfortable 20 second lead. Today he was in his own league which is very impressive considering his near non existent experience.

Yes, first time on snow, first time in a R5 car, and only second Jänner Rallye appearance (last year he had to retire just after a few stages). Today both Wagner´s will have to clean the road, but his Brother Simon said he would attack today.

According to Pluto there are prolems even to pass road sectios due to snowdrifts on the roads.

Simon Wagner retired on infamous Aisttal stage (stuck in a snowbank). Nearly ever position changed there, except for Julian Wagner - who is 7 minutes in front now.

Some crazy visitors cause chaos with their cars on road sections. One Audi driver surpassed 7 other cars at once, only to crash with a police car shortly afterwards ...

Great job by Julian Wagner who won by nearly 8,5 minutes in his first ever R5 start! Shame there was no real fight anytime during the rally.

For me it is pity that Neubauer retired so early. He should be only serious rival for Julian this year.
