Fri, thanks for the link.
I chatted to Henk earlier in the week, from what he said the stages sound quite similar to the Rally we have here next weekend in Port Elizabeth, so is a very good preparation for our own NRC round.
I have never heard anything about rallying in Hungary so will be very interesting to compare his times.
here you can find a video from 2011:
: : RallySport.hu - 18. Veszprém Rally 2011 : :
and from 2010:
17. Prince Veszprém Rally - YouTube
The footage confirms what he said. Lets see how he goes.
Henk got a 3rd overall, about 30 sec off the lead. Sounds like he had a bad road position on the friday and struggled with dust.
Overall a very good performance.
Henk Lategan is a protégé of Raimund Baumschlager and his Austrian BRR-Team, like Chris Brugger.Quote:

Citroën officially enters the 2019 hungarian championship :confused:
Who's the driver(György Balkanyi)?? I don't know his former results/performances :confused:

Edit: on Duen they seem to write apparently the driver will be Valenczei Adam :mark:

Adam Velenczei will be driver with Gabor Zsiros co-driving.
Gyorgy Balkanyi is a team manager/member.
Yes, he was Bútor's team manager from the early 2000s when they used the Saxo Kit Car in the importer team, then later managed the Peugeot Hungaria supported teams. All in all a good thing, as since Skoda left with Herczig, there wasn't really an importer supported team here. Hopefully they can do well and even win a rally or two (Velenczei hasn't won yet, so let's see how he will be doing...)
