National rally champions Aleks Humar and Florjan Rus (renault clio R3T) will take part in the rally in Železniki on Saturday, a one-day test of the national championship. After resigning at the introductory rally in Maribor and second place in the Slovenian DP at the Saturnus rally, they will have a very important performance in terms of defending the title of national champions from the last two years.

This time, Aleks Humar will again be able to count on co-driver Florjan Rus, and his racing clio was given a shorter differential lock before the rally. Impressions after testing before the rally were good, but to make full use of the car in future races will still have to work hard. In July, Humar will also have an important appearance at the Casentino Rally in Italy, which, in addition to the Clio Cup, will also count for the Mitropa Cup, where Humar is leading in the overall standings this year.

“Shorter differential lock will come right in more closed sections where less downshifting will be required. The car should now be more suitable for Slovenian roads. The gear ratios used to be really too long, as you don't need speeds of over 200 kilometers per hour on our relays. Feelings with the car are now much better than at the beginning of the year, but I still don’t have optimal sensations. We didn't even plan to perform in Slovenia before this year's season, but we will still attend them due to a web of circumstances. So we will definitely have a difficult rally in Železniki, and then we will continue with the Mitrop Cup. We will definitely do better from kilometer to kilometer, ”said Humar before the rally in Železniki.

Humar and Rus will have the starting number 1 in Železniki. They will have nine speed trials with a total length of 95 kilometers, and the length of the entire rally will be 193 kilometers.
