    Rally Poland 2016. Preface
    30.06.2016

    To make arrangements for Polish event of World Rally Championship Eurolamp World Rally Team took part in two-days official training sessions holding by Rally Poland organizers.

    Totally Valery Gorban and Vladimir Korsia overcame nearly 250 kilometers during two work days. The roads of Rally Poland are well-known for Ukrainian crew. But before the start of the rally it was very important to refresh knowledge about the roads characteristics, readjust the car and themselves for upcoming race. Moreover, the team had opportunity to work on both dry and wet road that might be very useful in the context of changeable weather forecast to the race days.

    «We don’t have definite weather forecast. It changes very often – on Monday morning forecasters predicted dry Friday and Saturday, but on Monday evening they promised the rain during those days. It would be better to race without rain. The roads are very soft and will be digged as it is, but under the rain the roads condition especially in forest parts will not be better. So, it is very well that our first training day was wet and second day was dry. As a result, we could work with different road conditions and now we are ready to any shift of weather», — told Vladimir Korsia.

    It is worthy to note that the section of the road that organizers of Rally Poland offered for official training was just the very road where last year Valery Gorban and Vladimir Korsia had unpleasant situation which changed into misunderstanding with local police. But, according to co-driver of Ukrainian crew, this coincidence only helped them to take good and combative mood before the race.
