Italian Rally News
Kind of surprise-Luca Rossetti, this year champion in Italy has signed for next season with Abarth Team. He will drive together with Umberto Scandola in Italy (CIR), Basso will represent Abarth in IRC !!
It will be interesting to see, where will end Andrea Navarra (maybe Ralliart Evo10 or even Corsa S2000)??
And what is the future in case of Andreucci (rumours about Fabia S2000), Travaglia, Gamba, Cantamessa...???ucci

Some drivers will be for the first time in a WRC car (Bianco, Signor) and Pedersoli is coming back!

Could somebody from Italy explain to me why there are two such championships alongside in Italy? There is Italian IRC and this new C.I.WRC championship. Where are pros and cons of these two championships in comparison? Which one is better? To be honest I am little bit lost :-)
Visit South Moravia. It is the real paradise

There used to be only one championship in Italy - Campionato Italiano Rally (C.I.R.). Now Tropheo Rally Asfalto (T.R.A.) was re-branded to championship so they have two. All the rest is trophies and cups (dozens). Czech republic has 6x less citizen and maybe 10x less rally events despite that we (Czechs) have 2 championships as well and in 2007 we had even 3. Basically it's same like here. The intenational championship has better driver quality but the national one has WRC, national or old cars allowed. The Italian IRC is just a cup of minor importance.

I wouldn't consider Italian IRC so unimportant-main ''attraction'' are quite high money incentives, drivers like Longhi, Sossela, F.Re, Corrado Fontana, Albertini, Crungola, Michelini (and many more...) were or are still competing in this series...and yes, most important-WRC, S1600, kit-car's, A8...everything is permitted...
Really?? I'm no fan of F1, but too many here have a giant chip on their shoulder about F1......Compared to the WRC, it's actually a well run series....unlike the WRC which is extremely amateur a lot...
