Yesterday was time for Esapekka Lappi, now with sun. Today Skoda Motorsport remains in same area but in tarmac, I think. Also Ascaria racing is testing close.
Great to see Lara Vanneste back in a rally car with Freddy testing and with Robert Consani, because there were rumours she would quit the rally sport and that would be a disgraceful waste of talent.
I'm not happy with the position Freddy Loix has at Skoda, he has no drive in the official R5 ... Yes he is not a young investment for the future and yes there will not be a works Skoda in ERC. With a lot of private money from his direct sponsors such as Johan Gitsels, he can do a R5 programm for partly BRC and ERC... Get a bad taste in my mouth for such a valuable driver who has greatly contributed into the development of this car.
It's his job. He isn't doing that for free ;)
Talked to Henning Solberg the other day. He said that the upgraded Fiesta will be a very big step in almost all aspects.
Its always difficult to know how big the real performance step is, compared to the drivers perceived performance step, But it sounded very positive.
Lara is Co Driver of Stephane Consani not Robert :)
