[ERC] Rally di Roma Capitale 2021

[PLuto]

Maybe stupid question but:

Why Alpine R-GT is not ERC2 ?

Abarth R-GT is ERC2

What is the difference ?

Like m-ast wrote, all three Alpine drivers were not interested to be registered in ERC2.

Mikkelsen’s final-stage spin rounded out a weekend of frustration for the Toksport WRT driver, who reported a two-wheeled moment on SS2 following a knock and was never truly at ease with the set-up of his Škoda Fabia Rally2 or his pacenotes on his Rally di Roma Capitale debut.

“It’s been tough,” he said. “A lot of it comes down to the preparations coming straight from Estonia and many gravel rallies in a row and only a very small test before. I just needed yesterday to dial myself a little bit in to asphalt. I don’t think I had the aggressivity and the speed in the corners which you need to have on Tarmac. But today was much better and we need to learn from this.”

I watched the 2019 season like this, but they only posted these videos on youtube during the 2020 pandemic. Is this what the eurosport coverage looks like? Its great! I think I found the Latvia's 45 min highlights on a russian site last week. I saved to watch it later but the link went down =/

I don’t have Eurosport anymore so it’s been a while since I last saw the full highlights programme and I must say there’s been a big improvement in the show, not so much the footage but the script and the narration.

Also, great to have it on Youtube, pity they don’t do that all the time.

Eurosport has sharpened up its act all round in recent times under Discovery, the UK feed at least.

I think the comms is by ERC reporter Chris Rawes and not the usual generic Eurosport guy, hence the improvement.

how do you see the Italian championship level?

For sure it's not what it used to be. Basso has been a class of his own for the last 15 years, but what about the others? 90% of Italian drivers can't even keep the pace of 46-year-old Nobert Herczig (who never achieved anything outside of Hungary) or 25-year-old Miko Marczyk (who never achieved anything outside of Poland). Andolfi, Campedelli, Scattolon and Scandola were supposed to be the new Italian talents. Where are they now?
