Recall that for the title, Martins Sesks received an award – the opportunity to start two stages of the FIA European Rally Championship with a four-wheeled Škoda Fabia R5 car, contributing to its professional development and skills future. It is confirmed today that the first of the two rallies will be the Rally Liepaja (24-26 May), and the Rally of Roma Capital (19-21 July) in Italy.
Martins SesksThe driver of the LMT Autosport Academy rally team: "Even though the initial plan was a little different at the start of the race, taking part in team meetings and training sessions, we realized that we needed more time to prepare for the first start with the Škoda Fabia four-wheel drive. But it's a completely different car – not comparable to the R2 front-wheeled car I've ever launched. In addition, our goal is not just to take part in the race and leave it. We want to acquire as much knowledge and skills as possible – but for that we need extensive homework. & # 39; & # 39;
& # 39; & # 39; Changing the competition schedule will give us another three weeks that will be useful in the preparation process. The most important nuance is the cooperation of our crew – the stages of the Liepaja Rally are better known, which should help to improve cooperation and regain confidence. Although asphalt starts with four-wheel drive would have been simpler, long-term priorities are also important. The next stage of the world championship will also take place in Sardinia, whose coverage has some similarities with what we expect in Liepaja. & # 39; & # 39;
"We will not deny that the great support from the supporters received during the World Championship stages was also one of the arguments for choosing a good start for the Liepāja Rally – the fans will not have to go through a long way to watch our shopping on the highway. "
"Thanks FIA, Eurosport Events (FIA European Champion) and winner of the Motorsport Italia award, which have allowed us to make the following changes – I am very aware of the effort that this has required! "
