WRC reli Japonska; 26-28. okt

[gorazd0]

Ta vikend (vzporedno z relijem Saturnus) se bodo na drugi strani zemeljske kugle že 14-tič v tej sezoni pomerili vozniki in sovozniki svetovnega pokala.
Japonska - dežela zavitih brzincev in skritih pasti, ki se skrivajo v gostem rastlinju ob cesti bo morda odločala o letošnjem svetovnem prvaku.

Gronholm trdi drugače: "Prvenstvo voznikov je na zanimivi točki. Mene in Sebastien Leoba ločijo le 4 točke, kar mi ne omogoča mirnega spanca. Preblizu smo, da bi lahko karkoli zakljčevali. Zmaga na Japonskem bi mi seveda pomagala, a moje mnenje je, da se bo stvar odvijala vse do zaključka v Walesu."
Blagor tistim, ki bodo v Walesu.

Ekipa Subaruja tokrat resno napoveduje, da pričakujejo uvrstitev vsaj enega voznika med prve tri. Ker gre za "domačo" dirko,... so pritiski še nekoliko večji.
Xevi Pons se bo po japonskih ridah podil prvič, zato so pričakovanja nekoliko nižja - uvrstitev med privih 8.

Začetek je bil obetajoč. V gosti megli, mokri cesti so se najboljše znašli Fordi (po SS2: LATVALA, GRÖNHOLM, HIRVONEN, LOEB, P. Solberg,...); tretji brzinec je bil tako drseč, da so ga nekateri primerjali z ledom...

Komentarji in izjave na prvem servisu:

1.Sebastien LOEB / Daniel ELENA This morning was really not easy. It was easy to make a mistake. We had tires a bit harder than the others and I lost confidence in SS2 where there were some ice spots on the road. I’ll make some changes to the set up of the car because I’m not totally happy with it.

Marcus GRONHOLM / Timo RAUTIAINEN Marcus went off road during Stage 4. It looks like he rolled off road. He lost about 1 minute but he kept going. He has not restarted from Service A. The roll cage of his car is too damaged to be repaired during a 30’ service. Ford has decided to put the Focus into Park Ferme’. They will try to make the repair under superally rules and there are chances that the car could restart tomorrow on Superally. The repair will be supervised by FIA scrutineers. It’s not guarantee the repair will be successfully. “I just went a bit too fast in that left hand bend. There was lot of loose gravel and I could not really turn. The right rear wheel hit a straw bale and the shock made the car turn and go off the road. The car hit a tree stump on my side. It took 1’ to go back to the road. I only noticed how badly it was damaged after the end of the stage.”

4.Mikko HIRVONEN / Jormo LEHTINEN It has been ok. But the conditions were really tricky, lots of fog in SS1, the road surface was frozen in SS2 and we found lots of loose gravel everywhere.

7.Petter SOLBERG / Philip MILLS The car is working but we have some problems with the dampers, we are struggling a bit with the grip but I guess it’s the same thing for all drivers.

8.Chris ATKINSON / Stephane PREVOT We have a problem with handling. It was not too bad in SS1 where the road was wide. I did my best to attack in SS2. I spun after 4 kms and that calmed me down.

V četrtem brzincu je vodilni Gronholm zletel s ceste; z levim bokom v drevo. Po prihodu v servis se Fordovo moštvo odloči, da avto iz varnostnih razlogov umaknejo z dirke. Kletka je bila preveč poškodovana. Upajo, da bodo do jutri uspeli popraviti avto... in nadaljevati rally.

Težave tudi pri Subaruju... v SS5 Petter zleti s ceste, poškodba/težave z menjalnikom... in odstop na poti do SS6; na poti do SS6 zleti s ceste tudi Atkinson.
V "igri" ostaja torej samo Xavi Pons...

po prvem dnevu je stanje naslednje:
1. Hirvonen
2. Loeb
3. Latvala
4. Sordo
5. H Solberg
6. Stohl
7. Pons

Went off the road and could not finish the stage.

P. Solberg nadaljuje rally,... bolj za trening in za Subarujeve navijače... postavil je najhitrejše čase na 14, 15 in 16. brzincu...

trenutni vrstni red je zgoraj. P. Solberg 28ti, Xavier Pons 36-ti

Ata Gronholm si je pa verjetno malo oddahnil.

Irska, Wales... ohranjena prednost +4 pike pred Loebom,... to bo še napeto.
