I did meet Fabia R5 "experts" this weekend.
They had spare parts lists and all dimencions.
EVO has even different doors than old R5 (the cutting is different)
btw. EVO has still 100% winning and new Fiesta not even single podiums..."quattro best 4wd rallycar ever"

Early days for Fiesta.. Estonia was it’s first proper event right?
Next test will be ERC Rome next weekend. Campedelli is a strong driver so should be a good benchmark.
Estonia was definitely a disappointment though. Looked visibly slower than the Fabia and Polo in the videos. Also seems very quiet (quieter than Fabia even)

Indeed, Cempedelli will be a perfect benchmark. I hope he wins....

There were many comments about the new Fiesta R5 testing lots of different things in Estonia by Suninen. He also hasnt driven the car much recently.
Its early days yet.

Can someone in short summarize the performance of the new Fiesta R5 in Estonia? I didn't follow the even much. Thanks in advance!

Between 0.5 and 1.0 secs/Km slower than the previous generation Fabia. Originally Posted by Mirek

This would then appear to compromise the speed that the jumps could be taken.
Looks like there's a lot of work to do.

The difference is crazy. When the Hyundai is off pace, its not like, 0.1 sec a kilometer, its a second / seconds a kilometer
