There was a little snow fall in the night. Roads are mostly wet without snow. The historics are first on stages.
Kostka lost nearly 6 minutes with a puncture on SS1. He will not win this one...
EDIT:Kostka retired due to time lost on SS1 (rumors say the rim broke that bad that it got stuck and the crew lost loads of time trying to remove it).
Kostka's rim (from ewrc):

Mirek Jakeš won Rally Kopná and proved again that the Hankooks are strong in wet and cold weather (unlike on the dry Valašská Rally). Erik Cais in his first ever 4WD start brought the biggest suprise. He won three of seven stages overall and was able to keep the pace with Jakeš through the whole event. He made a spin on one stage and lost roughly ten seconds. Jakeš on the other hand got five seconds penalty for hitting a chicane. Vlček with Hyundai R5 finished third when he managed to get over Tlusťák in Hyundai WRC (2016 spec.) in the very last stage. Kostka retired after first stage when his rim broke. He said he would prefer to start in another event with the same car instead of fighting a lost battle here. So let's hope he brings this car again elsewhere. I think that everybody expected somewhat more from Marczyk, Odložilík or Melichárek.
Adam Březík (son of Martin Březík) won 2WD classification with a large margin.
Dominik Stříteský won the Opel Adam Cup.
To me completely unknown French driver Stéphane Scellier won historic classification (after some problems of his opponents but still it's unusual to have a winner who is not known to anyone).
Final results:
1. Jakeš (Fabia R5) 39:12,5 (5 sec penalty)
2. Cais (Fiesta R5) +10,8 (one spin)
3. Vlček (i20 R5) +18,0
4. Tlusťák (i20 WRC) +20,6
5. Tarabus (Fabia R5) +41,3
6. Březík M. (Fabia R5) +43,0
7. Odložilík (Fabia R5) +1:00,4
8. Melichárek (Fiesta WRC) +1:05,4
9. Marczyk (Fabia R5) +1:14,1
10. Rujbr (Fabia R5) +1:35,5Last edited by Mirek; 13th April 2019 at 21:34.

I know him very well I am in contact with him more than one year, due to some business he is working in Czech now. Quite crazy when he was trying to find some team and codriver in Czech, had big plans of starts last year. At least he did Partr Rally Vsetin, where he finished on 5th position. For this year he finally got czech licence, so he can score points in czech historic championship.

Some entertaining onboards of Jakeš from Kopná:
SS6 (great stage with some fog): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_kw7UXPr9g
SS3 (not the best stage but very flamboyant driving): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24TLwAGKUyE
The hardest stage is available with Březík (the second mad half is rather famous): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyd53WojG6A
Unfortunately nothing from Cais, who by the way drove the whole rally on slick...Stupid is as stupid does. Forrest Gump

It's simply a crest. If it's meant to be taken flat out it's usually something like "horizont na plno" or "horizont plny" meaning "crest full".

Entry list for Rally Šumava and Vltava (ERC historic). With 95 entries (12 A8 cars) the list for the historic event is probably our all time best and also the quality of the historic field is impressive. With another 77 competitive crews (14 R5, 2 WRC, 6 GT) in the modern event and some legend crews it's nearly 200 crews together!
Šumava is already pre-seeded but the numbers were not yet published since they are not yet validated by FIA.
