    Given the state of affairs here, I'd say it is off. Many drivers were arrested some weeks ago for tax evasion, the federation is in shambles, the organizer of the Veszprém Rallys has folded due to held back money etc... We might not even have a national championship next year.

    that would be very very sad, as Rally Hungary in Veszprem is the greatest rally in ERC

    Are there big names of Hungarian rallying among the arrested drivers?
    What a shame, the Hungarian round was my favourite in the past years of ERC...

    Funny how bending the law and motorsport seem to be indelibly linked! When I was young it was drivers stealing cars to order for parts to fund their rallying rather than "white collar" crime like tax evasion!

    In short, yes. There are couple of drivers and a co-driver among them, although in two different cases.
    One is a multiple-time ERC podium finisher and started with an orange Yaris and Skoda RS this year
    One driver and his daughter with bright yellow Skoda (whose car was already up for sale after their arrest)
    One driver who is a Rally Hungary winner, but he never managed to get a national rally championship, and now might never will.

    A shame if it's off as it's been a cool rally.

    And as its scheduled as the first rally of ERC 2026 is there time for it to be replaced ?
    Although I suppose an extra Round could be fitted in later in the year..
