Crazy dude. I think they made him in a lab as the perfect RallyX driver :D

Race was fun to watch though!
 
Yes interesting ! Everything isnt going their way any more and for JK especially.

It's good for the Series to have some proper competition from Bakkerud and even having Veiby challenging his teammate.

It was a decent event in Ireland but there was a lot of criticism of the track (on YouTube), plus a shame the O'Donovan's didnt get to the final on home ground.

Yeah the track was very dull. They could rather race at Brand Hatch or something..

I have to agree. I haven't seen an event there for years and the old track was very different and always seemed to produce close racing. Now it's very tarmac heavy and there's not even a jump to enjoy !
 
(Couldn't find anything on the internet). Are the cars somehow slower now? I re-watched a lot of old finals and the supercars seemed faster. Maybe it was only because of better cameras though

RX1: The headline category features traditional, 600-horsepower, all-wheel-drive internal combustion Supercars.

Thank you, that's what I also read. But maybe the regulations changed around other parts of the car (suspension). Does anyone know? Maybe it's really just the broadcast

I dont think so. Most of the cars are pretty old now (Fiesta & 208 especially) so they are surely much the same spec as before.

Only KMS with the Polo seems to have developed their car. Although they did have launch issues initially so maybe the ECUs have been changed.

Did you have the same impressions during Holjes?
 
Im curious about what happened to Veiby. He got a P2 and was so frustrated. Im guessing Tommy Kristoffersson must have said some things about "you gotta let my baby pass you" hehe

I'm pretty sure they still use the same Polo R5 based car from 2020? I'm not sure how much they are allowed to develop it etc, for sure it's not 100% same as they retrofitted ICE powertrain after EV years.
 
WE’RE GOING NIGHT RACING! 🎆

Euro RX is set to make history at the season finale in Lousada, as we race at night for the first time.

Here’s how the double-header weekend unfolds:
Friday: Free Practice, then our opening Qualifying Session goes under the lights.
Saturday: Qualifying continues in daylight, before the first Semi-Finals and Finals of the weekend take centre stage as the sun sets.
Sunday: The concluding round across all four categories runs in daylight, with the titles decided.
 
i posted that on the erc page, but KING JOHAN won Rallye ADAC Mittelrhein in his class (RGT i guess?). he was racing a 992 redbull porsche. finished 6th overall, even beating some R5s
