was gutted that he made a mistake Friday because he was fighting for victory!

Bad rally for Cerny and maybe his last Junior ERC Rally besides Barum? He said that only because Peugeot CZ did a big investment he could start in Ypres.. If I understand well on autosport.cz

Doesn´t look too good for him now, with another crash following Azores - when reading the article on autosport.cz

As every year some more or less regular drivers seem to be dropping out of competition caused by lack of money or other reasons until mid-season, as this year already Neubauer, Tarabus (?), Kajto (?) and now maybe also Cerny - bad for ERC, as there are only a handful of regular drivers left besides the four work drivers

You can also add Bryan Bouffier to this list. But with a 12-event calendar with so many island events - what else did you expect?

Of course Bouffier, too.

Aren't there moving images of the crash of Lappi? I found this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oOhuq_IagxU

Tarabus personal reasons, I think. Kajto his program is 4-4, so he will be back in Barum.

2014 - 5th place
2011 - 8th place
2008 - 3rd place
2007 - 1st place

That is true. My mistake, sorry mate.

I spoke with Lappi and it is almost sure that he will be back in Ypres next year. Škoda wants that he will do again ERC next year. Of course plans can change, but at this point there is a real possibility that he will be again in Ypres in 2015. Lappi said also that he is hoping to drive in 2016 for a factory team in the WRC.
