St Wilfreds Classic Rally Photo Courtesy of Tony North St Wilfreds Classic Rally Photo Courtesy of Tony North Volume 7 : Issue 9 : September 2016 : Maurice Ellison Chairman's Chat (Written before the Belgium GP) When is a track limit not a track limit – what’s going on here with F1 ?? How about we try it in football – if the ball doesn’t go off the edge of the grass it’s not a throw in – ridiculous. If they can’t decide what a white line is then why not just build a wall on the kerbs as on the street circuits and that will stop the cheating. Looks like Lewis will have to make up plenty of places to get on the podium this weekend given his engine parts grid penalty. The Olympics have been and gone and I thought what about having rallying included but given that Froome and Thomas managed to crash off a push bike during the road race then perhaps it’s not such a good idea !!

Rally Sweden will be the second event for the New Generation i20 WRC and a second different surface. We have tested on snow back in December and again last week with the new car and it’s gone well with no major issues. The drivers have been happy too; they’ve found good set-ups for the differential and the dampers so I think they are all quite confident. Thierry finished second in Sweden last year in the 2015 car but the drivers say that the New Generation i20 WRC feels even better. The car is a bit longer so it should be more stable on fast sections of road like you get in Sweden. We believe we have gained a bit of traction too, which is important on a low-grip surface like snow. In Sweden the car runs on gravel specification but there are specific details you can prepare for this event. You don’t want to get too much snow in the car because it adds extra weight so you have to make sure it is well sealed, inside the wheel arches and underneath the car. Also, because of the cold temperatures we don’t have to cool down the car as much as usual so we’ll use a different radiator.

  • Wales Rally GB October 04 - 07, 2018
    2018 MEDIA GUIDE Wales Rally GB October 04 - 07, 2018 ROUND 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 Wales Rally GB October 04 - 07, 2018 HYUNDAI’S HELLO Welcome to Wales for Britain’s round of the 2018 FIA World Rally Championship, which is entering the final and extremely exciting phase. Hayden and Seb’s first podium of the season in Turkey on the last round was a nice moment and a plus following a measured and intelligent drive, but we know we missed out on so much more. Because of that, there has been a shift in the championship battle and we need to bounce back and do so quickly. We will aim to do just that in Wales. Thierry and Nicolas led in Turkey and showed that the pace of our Hyundai i20 Coupe WRC was strong on the very rough stages we found there. The points they scored for winning the Power Stage after an impressive performance showed what might have been and could yet have a crucial bearing in the final championship reckoning. It is unfortunate that Turkey didn’t go to plan for Hyundai Motorsport, but we have to accept the situation and come back fighting; it is what rallying is all about. The positive things are clear: we have a good car, good drivers, Thierry and Nicolas still lead the championship and were competitive on Rally GB last year. Like Thierry and Nicolas, Andreas and Anders also led in Turkey. Andreas spent much of his early career in Wales and has a good knowledge of the terrain and what he needs to do to be quick.
