In a truly winter style, the Rallytechnology team of Rybnik is starting the season with another rally in Finland. The team moves from the 53rd edition of the Arctic Lapland Rally, to the second round of the national championship, the 16th SM Vaakuna Ralli. In the competition held in the vicinity of Mikkeli, Rallytechnology will support two crews in Ford Fiesta R5’s: Łukasz Habaj and Daniel Dymurski, and Finns Jani Paasonen and Mika Rajasalo.

The latter rally will take place on 16th-17th of February. The organizers have prepared a total of seven stages, the longest of which (Siikakoski) is almost 28 kilometers long. The competition will start with Friday’s Ravirata prologue of 1.5 km. Earlier, Rallytechnology competitors will set up their rally cars in the area of Mäntyharju, the home town of Paasonen, who is a regular contender in the World Cup.

- The first of the rallies ended prematurely for Łukasz and Daniel, and this makes their appetites for the fight and finish even bigger - says Robert Gabryszewski, Rallytechnology team manager. - There is a rue winter in Finland, so given the lack of such rallies in Poland, it is the perfect place for training before the season. Our team will also include Jani, known not only for his appearances in the WRC factory teams, but also from the Warsaw Barbórka Rally. There are 107 crews on the rally list, including 17 in R5 class cars. The competition will certainly be exciting! :)
