In the third practice run today, the track record among touring vehicles fell!

GHD

There are 80 drivers on tomorrow's race starting list. If in the first run the drivers flirted even more shyly with the track, in the second they were more confident and achieved faster results, and in the third the Swiss Ronnie Bratschi surpassed himself again, breaking his own (last year's) track record between touring vehicles. In the absolute competition, we will obviously see a fierce battle for victory between the Czech Vaclav Janik and the Italian Federico Liber tomorrow. Among the Slovenes, Vladimir Stankovič proved to be the best in the first and second training sessions, but resigned in the third. The hero of today's training is the Swiss Ronnie Bratschi, who already managed to break his (last year's set) track record. Last year he crossed the track with a time of 2: 13.55, and this year a few tenths faster, as he finished at the finish

The drummer started the season with a win

GHD

Milan Bubnič started this year's season of mountain speed races with a sovereign victory in Stubičke Toplice, Croatia. With the Lancia Delta Integrale, he finished the race only behind the Hungarian with a Croatian license, Istvan Kavecz (BMW E90). In the second run, Bubnič drove more than three and a half seconds faster than Kavecz, but he ran a little less than a second and a half to win. The second fastest Slovenian was Matej Grudnik with the new Renault Clio, who was fourth in the overall standings. Third place went to Peter Marc. In Division I we saw quite a few resignations, and consequently only the winner Aleš Žakelj with Zastava Yugo and Primož Tavčar led to the finish line. The victory in Division II went to Tilno Pogačar in just 0.02 seconds, who managed to overtake Matevž Čudn in the second run. The third was Prim
