Rally in the 100 Acre Wood

The rally affairs of the United States do not stop rising. Not so long ago, Subaru cars of various modifications occupied the highest places, with some exotic cars behind them. But the situation is changing pretty quickly.

Qatar International Rally

Posted on February 4, 2021 by Vilius Šaltenis 2021 Asia Qatar Weekly post's

This time, the Qatari rally is more exciting than usual. In the past, the bet was worth either of the second place winner or the number of minutes Nasser Al-Attiyah would beat his nearest opponent. And in history, the number of those minutes ranged from one to 15. So it’s no wonder that this year it was the fifteenth victory of a Qatari in his home – Qatar International Rally

Olympus Rally ’20

Posted on November 21, 2020 by Vilius Šaltenis 2020 North America USA Weekly post's

North America is such a geographically diverse continent where you can find many similar places from all over the world. This feature is also reflected in the rally. The U.S. Rally Championship has enough rallies that are strongly reminiscent of the WRC Championship. In the winter, the WRC takes place in Sweden, and a similar Sno * Drift rally takes place in the USA. The WRC Finland is very perfectly replicated by the Ojibwe Forest Rally roads and the same thousands of lakes around. And the style of autumn Wales is best reflected during the Olympus Rally.

Lausitz Rallye ’20

Posted on November 11, 2020 by Vilius Šaltenis 2020 Europe Germany Weekly post's

You will rarely find a gravel rally in Germany. Maybe because of this and the late-year dates, this event is really popular and brings together a very varied list of attendees.

On the occasion that the World Rally Championship will probably end in Belgium, I will give a bit of attention to it. And also to one woman from there whose car you see in the photo of this post. So, Rallye Sprint du Trefle.

Rally Elektrėnai ’20

Posted on September 17, 2020 by Vilius Šaltenis 2020 Europe Lithuania Weekly post's

The Lithuanian rally caravan, having traveled to the western and northern regions of the country, turned a little further south, to Rally Elektrėnai. A fun-filled season has been somewhat hampered by the renewed theatre of mask’s restrictions, but the community’s stubbornness seems to be far greater than the obstacles, so we’re successfully moving on. As one canceled event is replaced by another, guests are given all the help to reach our country and although part of the Elektrėnai Rally program was canceled, it has been compensated by the pace of the participants and excellent views in the special stages. Not to mention the impressive work of the media teams when you can actually experience the rally on the couch. Not yet WRC +, but at such a pace…

Rallye Eiffel ’20

Posted on August 17, 2020 by Vilius Šaltenis 2020 Africa Mauritius Weekly post's

Rallye Eiffel ’20. On the weekend of the thirty-second week of this year, the whole of Europe boiled. The WRC Finland Rally, which was supposed to take place at that time, was alive only with the help of various articles, memories, insights, and other media types. But instead, the Polish Rally Championship started in south-eastern Poland, also taking Slovakia under its wing. There Hyundai driver J.Huttunen heroically won the fight against multiple Polish and Slovak champion G.Gzryb. V. Pech Jun has finally bought a serious car and now is unbeatable for two rounds in a row. The legendary V.Pech with the Ford Focus WRC ‘06 was not stopped by event another legend – J.Kopecky. With Portugal already back on track, the famous Rali Vinho de Madeira was already the third round of the championship. And these are just the biggest rallies, not to mention a bunch of smaller ones. Since it is very difficult to pick a favorite, we will travel completely elsewhere.
