This game was born when he was still alive, or better to say, both were still alive. The fate decided that Richard, in the same day of different years should have won the rally world championship title and had also to leave his cockpit forever to go to race between the clouds.

When those things was happening, the other one, Colin McRae, wasn't race anymore, or better, he didn't race in the same way he did before, when he was called "Rollin McRae". He never stopped to race at 100%. Never, both with cars and live.

CIIR - Costa Smeralda

Ellof

Gravel comes back! Penultimate rally of the italian championship and last rally upon this surface. CIIR comes to Porto Cervo where the cars must
face the insidious roads of Sardinia. Braga and Gregorietti, the leaders of the championship, will be the protagonists of this rally.

In N4 we will have a very important challenge. Will the 207's drivers regret their decision to switch to this car? We must pay attention to Benuzzi and Rubini but be careful to Tabarelli and Micheletto too. In A6, Albertella and De Lucia cannot make any mistake, like so Pesce who has a little hope to get the victory in the class. In A7 we have 4 drivers in few points and we don't really know yet who can win the title. Tha A5 has a big appointment
with Marini and Ceretti who must defend from Cornachin and Valentini's comeback.

WIRC - Germany: Hirvela wins.

Ellof

Hirvela and Braga seems to race in the european championship instead of the WIRC and dominate the rally with more than 2 minutes gap upon Sebi, the 2007 WIRC champion and leader of the 2008 championship.

Gregorietti is out and Denna has also some problems with his Peugeot 207. There are news also in the other classes. Ghibaudo is the only driver who finish the rally in A5 and get 10 points; De Lucia wins upon Albertella and takes the lead in A6. Affrikast wins in N4 and Barone double his victory of the Rally of Finland in A7 class.

WIRC - Rally of Germany

Ellof

The tarmac appointments are getting closer and closer and they probably make the difference for the final standing. One mistake and you're out! The drivers of the WIRC will stop in Germany to face a very hard rally on the dirty tarmac and upon the wet tracks of the military base near Trier.
The main challenge is the one between Nagy against Gregorietti with Braga who can spoil their party.

In N4 we can have a very important challenge between Brzeski, Denna and Strazzi, and in A6 Albertella must defend from De Lucia and Mercan attacks who are getting a very hard comeback. In A7 Barone will try to repeat the victory of Finland while in A5 all the drivers will try to catch Cornachin. For team championship we will have a very important challenge between pezzenTeam and ImboGames but we must also pay attention to RallyRacing and FGA-Corse.

EIRC - Elpa Rally

Ellof

The Elpa Rally should be the right time for Marco Braga to win the European Championship with one rally still to come. The title should be a great gift for all the pezzenTeam that was looking to the European championship as one of the season's target. The driver from Venice can also afford not to win that rally, while a success is the only way Tommi Hirvela has to keep alive his chances.

The greek rally should also declare the champions for the other classes: Kainulainen in N4, possibly Albertella in A6. In the A5 class, Strazzi can be the winner in front of his teammate, while on the team side the imboGames can become champion.

CIIR - San Remo Rally

Ellof

CIIR is going to live his most important round of the season: the Rally of San Remo. Braga is still leading but hit leadership is not so sure as it was time ago because of his retirement in the Rally of Alpi Orientali. Only 4 points difference between him and Gregorietti - the CIIR champion 2007 - ready to fight upon the San Remo stages for the victory.

In the other classes Albertella and Denna will try to win so they can get the title in the next Rally Costa Smeralda upon De Lucia in A6 and Ghibaudo in N4. In A7 class there are some drivers who are still fighting for the final victory: Mazzeo (new leader), Rigolone, Demartini and Vidali. In A5 class all the drivers must fight against Cornachin who is doing good after the summer break with the small 106.

WIRC - Rally of Finland

Ellof

Nagy is flying toward the second world title. He won the Finnish Rally with a big advantage upon his follower Gregorietti: more than 2 minutes.
The FGA's driver had a great fight against Braga for the whole rally but he had to give up for the victory just to protect his second position that is very important for the continuation of the WIRC.

In N4 the new 207 broke the balances and messed up all the drivers. This is the time of Denna that gain upon Brzeski but he had to give up against Affrikast who made a superb race. In A6 class Mercan and De Lucia seems to get used to the top of the standing: first and second once again. Albertella is third and from now on shares the leadership of the class with the FGA driver. Victory in A7 for Barone; in A5 class Cornachin tries to escape; Ghibaudo and Temiszoy follow.

WIRC - Rally of Finland

trippy101it

WIRC is coming back with one of the most important rally of the championship: Finland Rally. Inside the forests of Jyväskylä another chapter of the duel for the final victory between Nagy and Gregorietti will take place. The drivers are divided by 6 very important points. Braga follows in third position after the great victory in Poland; he wants to do nice things also here in Finland.

In lower classes it's very interesting the duel between Brzeski and Denna in N4 class. The italian driver has been able to find a good feeling with his new 207 s2000 in the first rally after the summer break. In A6 De Lucia and Mercan will try to get the first position occupied by Albertella. In A7 the ImboGames is the great protagonist with Mazzeo and Galliano, while in A5 class Cornachin seems to be faster than the rest of the drivers.

EIRC - Barum Rally Zlin

Ellof

European Championship is making is comeback after a stop of more than two months for the Barum Rally Zlin, in the Czech Republic. With less than three round still to run, Marco Braga is leading in front of Tommi Hirvela, than Klima and Rosza. These four drivers, will fight for the champs even if the math is still including Simone Ferrari as a contender.

The Barum Rally will be important in particular for Brzeski, that should became champion of the A7 class with two rally still to do, even if Mazzeo will try to fight agains the polsh driver. Also Kainulainen, in the N4 class, can be appointed as champion in advance, but both Bostanci and Affrikast will try their best to make this impossible.
In the A6 class another exciting battle is expected between Albertella, Salati, De Lucia and Mercan, with the turkish a little bit too far from the lead but very strong during the summer period. In the A5 class, Strazzi and Brisa will be fighting for the success. In any case, the imboGames will have something to celebrate at the end of the rally...

CIIR - Alpi Orientali

Ellof

Let's start over from tarmac where Marco Braga built his leadership who is defending from Gregorietti's attacks.Zelio is trying to recover the 2 blank scores he did in the San Martino and in the Salento rallies.

Behind them we find Ferrari and Denna. The first has the same car of the leader while the second has a brandnew car that showed us all his potential and his value. We are at 4 rallies to the end of the championship and here, at the Alpi Orientali a mistake can be fatal. Good luck everyone!

WIRC - Nagy and Rally Poland

Ellof

The battle for the 2008 Logitech WIRC Championship took place in Polsky, where Nagy was able to take a great victory after an exciting start with Gregorietti. The italian, at the debut with the Subaru Impreza, did a great rally.

There was also another debut in this rally: the Peugeot 207 S2000 that was choosen by 11 crew. For the N4 there has been nothing to do. In the A6 classe Mercan took the success dominating the rally since the first stage and thanks also to the many retirement, was able to get 10 points for him and Rallivideo. The imboGames made a one-two in A7 with Mazzeo and Galliano, while Cornacchin (FGA-Corse) did his comeback and won the A5.

Ellof

The world championship starts up again in Poland, after the european round. The drivers are coming to fight upon the stages near Mikolaikj plains.

The Hungarian drivers Klima and Rozsa will try to catch Marco Braga, current leader of the champ. Behind, a lot of drivers are trying to score some good points such as Ferrari or Hirvela and Ostrovskis, both absent in the last rounds. Be sure, the show will not be missing!

CIIR - S.Crispino, Gregorietti wins

Ellof

The fight is heating in CIIR 2008 championship because Gregorietti takes the victory in the last rally before the summer break and now is coming close to Braga, while Ferrari doesn't get the podium because of Denna, author of an astonishing performance.

This is what we need to revitalize a championship leaded by Braga, the pezzenTeam driver that now has 60 points, while the FGA-Corse driver, Gregorietti, reach 46 points. Only 14 points to recover in 4 events. A thing hard to do because Braga needs to finish at second place in each rally to celebrate his victory.
This is an hard task. Both of them must face the Sanremo and the Alpi Orientali, the gravel of the Sardinia in Costa Smeralda and the last round nearby the Como lake. Dawnward trend but convincing performance for Ferrari who is not at ease with gravel surface. Good performance also for Zorzi who is 7.th absolute. In N4 apart from a great Denna and his Subaru, we have good performances for Strazzi and Malattia. The imboGames driver doesn't make a mistake since the rally of Mille Miglia while the RallyRacing driver comes back for class victory: 3 drivers in 9 points. In A7 victory for Rigolone, after Venturelli's domain who has been forced to retire because of an electric failure. Mazzeo has made a mistake who cost him his first victory in CIIR championship. In A6 we have a new winner: Pesce that, after a lot of practice and sweat has been able to win over De Lucia, taking advantage of Albertella's retirement. In A5 Marini wins and take the lead in the standing.

CIIR - S.Crispino

Ellof

This is the last rally of italian championship before the summer break; the Rally of San Crispino, wednesday june the 18.th, 2008, all gravel rally nearby Cesena. Braga will try to detach his team mate Ferrari, but especially Gregorietti, the CIIR 2007 champion, who was in trouble in the last rally San Martino di Castrozza.

Behind them, a lot of drivers who are ready to do great things, starting from Favero to Bogani that in the previous gravel rally put the top drivers in trouble.
This won't be an easy rally for Albertella, De Lucia and all A6 class because of this surface that don't favor the the features of these cars. We are waiting for the new performance of Bertellotti (Turboteam) who can do a good rally after the great performance of the San Martino.
This rally can be also a redemption for Pesce and Grandis, who finished 3.rd and 4.th in the last rally upon gravel: they were at ease upon this so slippery fund. In A7 Venturelli could start the rally, after some problems of his team budget and he can be protagonist of a rally like some months ago in rally of San Marino, his only victory in CIIR 2008. Demartini is the leader and he wait for the answer of Vidali, Mazzeo and Rigolone. In N4 Malattia will try some important points to "steal" to Ghibaudo and to his team mate Denna, while behind Benuzzi and Rubini can do good performances upon gravel if they are allowed by Brisa and Strazzi. Pay attention to Pivetta and Policardi, the first is in a good shape though the retirement in the San Martino. The second is at ease on gravel surface. In A5 class we can watch a battle between Marini and Ceretti.

CIIR - Mille Miglia Rally, unofficial results.

Ellof

Yesterday, march 18, 2008 the CIIR drivers started their 3.rd event of the season: Rally Mille
Miglia. After an hard fight Braga keep the first place from the big attack of Gregorietti Zelio,
who lost a lot of time during the first stage and who has been able to make a powerfull come back reaching the second place.

We got good fights for main positions for the overall standing with some surprise that put Ferrari and Chiaramonte out who were in good condition at the beginning of the rally. Third position goes to Denna with his Subaru N4. Class victory for Albertella disadvataged for the overall standing by the dirt tarmac of the stages.The CIIR protagonists are coming out with their constance. Behind Denna and Albertella, we can see some constant drivers who are picking up points in every race, like De Lucia and Pesce in A6 and Ghibaudo and Brisa in N4 who have done a great fight from the start to finish. Another retirement for Salati, the A6 WIRC winner. In A7 class no-one has arrived at the finish line.

CIIR - Rally Mille Miglia

Montichiari (Brescia) - The organization of Rally Mille Miglia start from a disaster occoured in EIRC championship about one month ago and retry with the CIIR. Track has been modify in almost his lenght and now we have this brand new track made by large and narrow streets and corners all around the village of Montichiari.

Gregorietti and his Citröen Xsara WRC must confirm the two previous victory scored in Rally del Ciocco and Rally di San Marino. As, we saw in Rally of Sweden, the FGA-Corse driver is living
a great moment. His main opponent is surely Marco Braga and his Subaru Impreza WRC; he is also in good shape as we can see watching the standing of last EIRC event in Turkey. In his team, the pezzenTeam, all are awaiting for his first vistory in CIIR just to consolidare the good position in manufacturers championship. This is also the chance fot imboGames to start to score some points in this unlucky start of the CIIR. The drivers of this team didn't score good results in the previous 2 rallies but in the last WIRC event they did a great result and now they are ready to
double it also in CIIR. Furthermore Team Rallyracing dominates N4 class and scores only few points in overall standing.

WIRC - Sweden unofficial results.

Ellof

The main thing we can understand taking a look at the standings after the swedish rally is that ImboGames and Ostrovskis Renars are not joking. A fantastic week to remember
for the driver and the team that are leading in EIRC championship and now also in WIRC.

Second place for Gregorietti Zelio that has done its own race without the will to win at every cost; third is Rozsa that confirms the good things showed in the EIRC. A lot of surprises occoured during the race. The main was that Nagy and Hirvela went off in the same stage, they were fighting for the final victory.
In A6 class, victory for the italian driver Salati, followed by Bas and Kemal that complete the podium. In N4 victory goes to Brzesky upon Denna and Brisa.
Waiting for official results, ImboGames enjoy his brand new rally star in RBR-Online.

WIRC: Rally of Sweden 2008

Ellof

From the tarmac of the Montecarlo to the gravel of Sweden; single common denominator: the ice and snow covering these two funds road. If the asphalt of Montecarlo was featured by the wet, icy and snowy, in Sweden we can expect the gravel to be covered by snow and ice, despite the high temperatures.

Welcome to Sweden, welcome home in Karlstad, Sweden Rally of 2008 Logitech WIRC. Have a rest and imagine the sound of the powerful A8 cars through the forests and try to see Nagy and Ostrovskis to "fight" for the overall success. Or think to see the powerful Fiat Punto S1600 of Albertella and Mercan, confronted with a not very suitable surface for their A6 cars. Or imagine Kailunanen and Affrikast at the wheel of their N4, trying to continue the amazing battle they had during the last WIRC rally.

What every pilot prepare nails above each tire and could face a curve to the left in full, without give up the speed.

Final report of the Championship and prizes

Lu!!

Last week WIRC and CIIR 2007 championships ended. They have been two very intense, and often closely fought championships with fights to the tenths of a second.

New rules (realistic mode for damage and tyre changes only at service park) gave drivers more concern to preserve the car for the entire rallies but, as we saw from the beginning of the season, all the drivers let us know that the new rules haven't conditioned their behaviour who during the season set great times.

Pharaoh Rally Team dominated the WRC class of the WIRC championship. Their drivers, Sebi Nagy, Renars Ostrovskisand Vaido Veek won 9 rallies and gave only one victory to Tommi Hirvela in the Rally of France. Tommi was not so competitive as in last season and he was not at the height of our expectations. A deserved victory for Nagy and a great second place for the Italian driver Ivan Bertolini who, with his speed and regularity climbed on the second step of the podium ahead of Renars Ostrovskis, making a good fight back after a problematic start to the season.

In the PWRC class Mika Lemmetti and Jari-Matti Tiilikka (the flying finns) dominated. After a big fight they end the season in first and second position. The podium is completed by Patryk Gnyp who overtook the other flying finn Sami Juvakka in the last rally of the season. So we have the whole podium occupied by drivers of Autoklub VRT.

In the JWRC class it was a clean victory for Mateusz Brzeski who showed great speed and consistency on all the surfaces with only one retirement at the Rally of France. This was won by Albertella Piero, who finished an excellent second overall and scored points in all the rallies except the first, the Rally of Montecarlo. The podium was completed by Andrius Vaitekunas who climbed up the standings in the last part of the season after a mid season without points.

In the teams championship Autoklub VRT took the victory, with second place going to Pharaoh Rally Team and third place for pezzenTeam.

.....

Regarding the CIIR championship, Zelio Gregorietti won the Italian title in the WRC class after a great battle against Ivan Bertolini throughout the season. Gregorietti is ahead by only 25 points from Bertolini who, with a great level of performance, easily took the second position and was challenging Gregorietti. Third position for Ferrari Simone who, even if he didn’t score points in some rallies, reached the lower step of the podium hoping for a better result next season.

The PWRC class gave a fantastic fight between Marco Braga , Gilberto Agazzi and Nazareno Malattia. They fought for the victory for the whole season changing their places in the standings many times. At the end Braga won the title by 15 points ahead of Agazzi, who took second place by only one point from Malattia. Congratulations to everybody who made this a true championship.

In the JWRC class congratulations go to Federico Castellani, a fast and consistent driver who won ahead of Piero Albertella, a good second considering he didn’t score points in 4 rallies. He precedes Raffaele Soprani who conquered the third step of the podium.

Thanks to all the drivers who participated in the championships and see you in the 2008 season.

Here the prizes of the Championships:

1st WIRC: steering-wheel G25 (offered by Logitech)
1st CIIR: sim racing seat (offered by Manu-Factory)

[WIRC] Tonight is the night...

mulder

Ready to go. You can hear the engines warming up, you can feel the pressure on the drivers, you know that this is the first step for a long and challenging championship. The Logitech 2007 WIRC.

As you have seen, the champ will start with some changes on the rules, mainly the Art 6.2 and the Art 7.1.
Regarding the first one (6.2), unfortunately the test rallies pointed out that there is still something to do to make the damage working properly between the stages. We will keep working on this functionality in order to be able to use it during the year. The consequence of this is that we will have the realistic damage in order to make the challenge more difficoult, but there will be a new car waiting for you at the beginning of each stage.
Regarding the Art. 7.1, please note that we have changed a little bit the starting time (and the HQ open), now at 21.30 italian time (GMT +2). The HQ will open at 21.15.

In addition to this, we would like to remind you that the drivers has to choose before entering the HQ the car they will use during the champ, later on it will not be possible to change them. The Team Manager, moreover, has to define in their control panel what are the drivers that will be going to compete in each class. If this will not be done, the drivers of the team will not be able to join the rally.

Have fun with the Logitech 2007 WIRC!
