This year's second consecutive double victory for OPV Šport

After a double victory at the Fuchs Rally Velenje, when the crews Martin Mlinar - Miran Mlinar and Rok Turk - Martina Lazar won in Division 1 and Division 2, the crews of OPV Sport achieved the same excellent achievement last weekend at the 6th Vipava Valley Rally. In addition to winning in their division, Rok and Martina also ranked high in the overall rally standings, finishing on the podium and taking home the trophy for 3rd place. The slippery asphalt surface, especially in the famous Žablje, provided the racers with demanding conditions, and the Saturday afternoon downpour further enriched everything. But the fans, who in large numbers accompanied the return of the rally to Ajdovščina, were able to more than enjoy the racing performances, and at the same time provide a fantastic atmosphere both in the service zone and on the speed p.

Humar won for the third time and consolidated the lead

Rally

The 29th Velenje Rally, with its short speed trials, took care of small differences between the racers, and we did not see a repeat of last year's showdown for victory this year. The overall victory was celebrated by the German Manuel Kossler, who justified the role of the favorite by driving at the border. His attacking performance cost him a good ranking on Saturnus, where he smashed his Subaru Impreza R4, and in Velenje he won at his expense with a nine and a half second advantage over another German, Hermann Gassner in a Mitsubishi Lancer EVO X R4, both fought in the Šaleška valley for points in the Mitropa Cup. Aleks Humar also drove offensively, and as a result he made some mistakes that would soon cost him the final rankings, but the Renault Clio R3 from Idrija always managed to save it from the worst. “Maybe I was a little pr

So far, only 18 Slovenians are on Lavanttal

Rally

The Lavanttal Rally will also mark the beginning of the Slovenian National Rally Championship this year. Both we and the spectators are saddened by the fact that only 18 Slovenian crews have registered for it so far, compared to 28. Last year, despite the reduced number of participants in the first of seven rallies this season, we expect this number to increase if not before, at five domestic events. Also this year, the big favorite of the season is Aleks Humar with a Renault Clio R3, who pulled his car well after the winter sleep at the Rebenland rally, which was considered the Mitropa Cup. There was also Asja Zupanc with a Mitsubishi Lancer EVO IX, who will be the only Slovenian participant in the all-wheel drive car at the Lavanttal Rally. Points for the Slovenian championship will be in two weeks in Av
