However, in the continuation of the competition, the competition will be fierce and the team is determined to use every opportunity to achieve the highest result, the team informs.
”“ Rally Estonia ”will be driven at a competitive pace, which we developed in the pre-race trainings in Aluksne and in the last two races. We are preparing for the Estonian rally as carefully as for the farthest and lesser known rallies. We worked hard because the roads in southern Estonia are fast and cunning, a bit like the roads in Finland. But mistakes are not in our plans. Many artificial springboards and other elements make this race very difficult for both the pilot and co-driver, as well as for the technical team of M-Sport Poland, with whose support and built Ford Fiesta Rally4 we start the race, ”says JWRC pilot Mārtiņš Sesks.
“The basic adjustments have been found, thinking about the springboards, the car is well raised, but small adjustments will follow even after the introductory phase. We know what tactical driving means. Let’s keep a cool mind so that we don’t have to donate tires or a car, ”adds JWRC co-driver Renārs Francis.
Last year, Seska and Frances’ crew “Rally Estonia” won the first career victory in the World Rally Championship. This year, the Estonian stage of the World Rally Championship will take place from four days from 15 to 18 July.
In the vicinity of Tartu, athletes will perform 24 special stages with a total length of 320 km, and this will be the first stage of the season, where spectators will have access to both the service park and the award area. The final stages of the WRC will take place in Belgium (13-15 August) and Spain (14-17 October).
