Would have been interesting to see Mikkelsen's stage times in rally Bohemia with the new Skoda RS. Is he racing without time control this weekend?

I'm sure they're recording their own times but he might not be pusing that hard.. i don't think he's had that much mileage in the car on asphalt and he's supposed to be a kinda safety car hehe

Pech out of Bohemia with another technical problem.. Kopecky dropped a lot of time to Mares this morning who now leads.

Mares retired on the last stage with a technical problem, gutted for him after a great drive. Kopecky wins from Wagner.

Wagner was very very impressive for me, obviously he is doing a lot of kms, but still. Gutted for Mares, it was a good fight with Kopecky, hopefully he can nick it the next time.

Stages were quite wet and muddy which are not ideal Kopecky conditions, especially with new car he doesn't know so well. Disappointing result for him bit i expect him to get much stronger as the year goes on.
