Yes, doing two rallies more

1) Boldogko Rally - Ostberg leading up to last stage (Hadik +50 s), puncture and dropped to 4th 2) Eger - Hadik was better, do not remember any particular problem for Ostberg (+49 s) 3) Salgo - no Ostberg, Hadik 2nd place 4) Mecsek - Ostberg won, Hadik 2nd place (+34 s) 5) Veszprem - no Ostberg, Hadik crashed 6) Vertes - Ostberg won, Hadik 2nd place (+48,5 s) 7) Nyiregyhaza/Hungary - Ostberg won, Hadik 2nd place (+26,1 s)

I thought they stopped making new Fabias already many months ago.

The complete Škoda Auto company was on halt for last two weeks and people were at home for reduced salary. They started building stock cars again today but only on limited scale. There are tens of thousands of unfinished cars parked on various locations all around the country. They expect to have around 1/4-1/3 lesser turnover this year which means billions of Euro missing...

Crikey, has Skoda been particularly badly hit? I knew there were widespread problems, but that sounds worse than I'd imagined.
