  • Newsletter N O 3 October 2020
    Dear Rally family, dear friends, Welcome to issue six of the FIA Rally Newsletter, which we are pleased to send out following last week’s online meeting of the FIA World Motor Sport Council on October 9, 2020. Inside are details of the new eighth and final round of this year’s FIA World Rally Championship, the planned calendar for the 2021 WRC, plus an update on some of the recent regulation changes. From a Regional Rally perspective, we are happy that the FIA Middle East Rally Championship title will be awarded in 2020 following a change to the points-scoring system. We are also humbled by the efforts of the Rally of Lebanon organisers to keep moving ahead with their event in November, despite the devastating explosion in Beirut in August and the suffering and disruption that it has caused. Continuing the Regional Rally theme, we are enthused by the progress of Rally3 with the first car, a Ford Fiesta Rally3 from M-Sport Poland, coming to life during a summer of test and development. An update on the work undertaken by the Rally Safety Task Force and how it helped with the successful running of three events in Croatia, San Marino and Portugal can be found in this edition. Everyone in the Rally Department is very proud that the Sporting Regulations for FIA Rally Star have been approved with momentum really building up following the publication of a detailed set of guidelines to help ASNs around the world organise the initial talent detection events. FIA Rally Star will help to uncover and nurture future world champions by encouraging mass participation in the sport at grassroots level.

    1 MYSTERIES IN THE ARCHIVES Lesson Plan by Louise Sarrasin, educator Commission scolaire de Montréal (CSDM), Montreal, Quebec Objective To help students discover or learn more about famous or lesser-known media images that capture key events of the 20th century so they can situate the events on a timeline, better understand them and analyze certain aspects. Target audience Students age 14 to 20 Connections Arts and Culture Languages Social Sciences Films needed for the lesson plan Films in the Mysteries in the Archives collection headed by Serge Viallet (10 x 26 min) Summary of the lesson plan This lesson plan will enable students to discover or rediscover media images that capture key events in the history of the 20th century. It will help them see how the images were used by the filmmakers, journalists or the media to present this history in a certain way. In viewing films directed by Serge Viallet, Julien Gaurichon and Alexandre Auque in the Mysteries in the Archives collection, students will examine and question the footage presented so as to better understand the role that such images can play in interpreting history. In so doing, they will hone their analytical skills and critical judgment in order to develop a well-founded opinion (see Note 1). Preparatory activity: Images and facts Approximate duration: 60 min Begin by writing the following words by Serge Viallet on the board or a flipchart: “Images tell stories, and we tell the story of the images.” Get your students to comment on this quote by asking them the following questions:

When Ted Walker and I set out to record the history of Lister using Ted’s Ferret Fotographics archives as the basis, we certainly didn’t realise that what began as a relatively simple photo-book would turn into the major work that it did. But when I approached Brian Lister and told him of our intentions, he soon became personally interested in the project, and began to uncover all sorts of fascinating documents and pictures. Augmented by more period photographs from his former chief mechanic Edwin ‘Dick’ Barton, the book grew into a full- blown history of Lister, covering all Brian’s cars and telling the story of the family company, George Lister Engineering (which still flourishes today, incidentally, though it ceased to have any connection with cars after the team retired in 1959). The final cog in the mechanism, as it were, was John Pearson. As I say in the book’s introduction, John has had a longer continuous relationship with Listers than anyone else, and when I first came onto the scene around 1966, John was one of the first Jaguar racing people I met. I soon learned that for several years from 1962 he had been mechanic to John Coundley, that prolific owner and driver of Lister-Jaguars, and before that had seen the earliest Listers perform and watched Lister works driver Archie Scott Brown in his prime.

Before I underline the team’s hopes and expectations for this event, I wish to acknowledge all the hard work that’s gone into putting on this rally in such a short amount of time. The efforts of AKK Sports and all the volunteers, particularly in the context of COVID-19, has really impressed me so a big thank you to them. It’s fair to say we showed our limits on Rallye Monte-Carlo and found ourselves licking our wounds and trying to get ahead. Unfortunately, it didn’t work there and after making some changes to our approach we start the second round of the season hoping it will be much better than the first. Having wished a fond farewell to Carlos del Barrio after Monte as he prepared for the next chapter of his career, we are pleased to welcome back Craig and Paul for the start of their half-season campaign in a Hyundai i20 Coupe WRC. We know very well their ability and determination as they try to make a strong start to their season. As well as our regular World Rally Car drivers, we are giving a big chance to a really promising youngster, Oliver Solberg.

A RENAULT ‘FAMILY’ Jean Rédélé was the first-born son of Madeleine Prieur and Emile Rédélé, a Renault dealer based in Dieppe and a former mechanic of Ferenc Szisz – the first Renault Frères ‘factory driver’, winner of the Grand Prix de la Sarthe in 1906 at Le Mans and runner-up in the Grand Prix de l'A.C.F. in Dieppe in 1907. Louis Renault himself had hired Emile Rédélé right at the beginning of the 20th Century. At the end of the First World War, at the request of Louis Renault, the young Emile Rédélé settled in Dieppe and opened a Renault dealership there in rue Thiers. Two years later, Jean-Emile- Amédée Rédélé was born on May 17, 1922. After completing his studies in Normandy, Jean Rédélé took his Baccalauréat exam during the Second World War and came into contact with people as diverse as Antoine Blondin, Gérard Philipe and Edmond de Rothschild.
