20 Sep SAN MARTINO’S EMOTIONS ARE UNIQUE!

Every pilot had an important performance, last weekend, at Rally San Martino; only one regret: Carella’s road exit. Two cars are ready for next weekend: one 208 R2 for Strabello at “Adriatico” for Cir Junior, the usual Clio S1600 for Rovatti in Casciana Terme.

Good for Piva as well, who ended the race without any problem.

Disappointment for Andrea Carella who, after occupying the second position for almost all the race, he had a road exit with his Peugeot 208 T16 R5, losing points that would have permitted him to put himself  to the top of the R5 classification of the WRC Italian Championship.

The stainless couple, at “San Martino”, got in advance of one race, the WRC Italian Championship title for the second year in a row, in addition to the Michelin Rally Cup, S1600 category. Important performance also for Vittorio Ceccato, aboard the second Clio S1600 that was in race, who arrived to the second step of the class podium.

In R2 class, Stefano Baggio has defended the team’s colors. He was able to complete the milage with a total time of 1:26’51.4, which has permitted himself to reach the fourth class position, going close the podium.
