Central Europe was the battleground, and a good fight was fought on the Czech tarmac. It was @Dreadmed who conquered the high speed public roads at the wheel of the Fiesta, beating @Cabelmania and the Hyundai by less than 20 seconds. @ZeroTheNorth took P3 in his Fiesta to take a handy points haul in his championship bid.

I tried this Estonian rally yesterday and it is mega challenging. I need to drive some more kilometers to set a time that i dont need to be ashamed of.

 

[Cabelmania]

I was doing good, then Vellavere happened and then I missed 1st place in the Power Stage for just +0.100 SECONDS !!!!!!!

I'm provisional 1st, but like in the C.E.R. Rally I'm afraid it won't last

Cabelmania your time in the power stage is from another league for me. I am happy that i survived this rally without some big crash. Now i am provisional 2nd place, i hope that it could be some points for me in the end 😀
