After the long day that brought the Breslau Poland participants to the Gwda Wielka area, the race track of the penultimate keg offered a completely new and different terrain from that of the Drawsko’s polygon
.Again separated in 2 starting groups, one in the Borne Sulinowo area with a special stage of 123km and then in the Czarne Polygon tracks, famous for its “toaster type route”, while the other starting group first drive the Czarne Polygon for 60km stage and then in the Miastko Forestry area to make 100km of additional distance.
After almost 1000km of racing, the teams were perhaps expecting a relaxing day but the rain made driving even more challenging. On the other hand, it is not Breslau if there is no rain and mud!
In the bike class, it’s still Arunas Gelazninkas the overal leader, despite the stage victory of the German rider Sascha Christof (KTM). The lithuanina pilot of Hisqvarna still have great advance and big chances for the title. In the quad group, the things look nice for Remigiusz Kusy (CAN-AM) from Poland, who has great advance in front of Antanas Kanopnikas (LTU, CFMOTO).
Michal Szczurtek from Poland took command in the SSV rankings, but nothing is clear yet, because of the short distance between the fastest buggies. In the car class new overall leader is Ronald Van Loon (NLD, Nissan), but here too we expect final battel till the finish line. Almost done on the way to victory for William Groningen (NLD, Iveco) in the cross country truck class.
In the extreme category, Estonian pilot Hardo Mere has huge, really huge advance and the chances for the crown in the car class are just a matter of time. Same in the small (<7.5T) truck class, where Felix Muellenheim (Unimog) seems unbeatable, as well as for the biggest trucks, where his compatriot from Germany Kay Messner (MAN) is leading the caravan.
Today is the last day of race. I twill be the day where the fate of each team will be decided. Each turn must be taken faster than usual, each ditch must be driven with more caution and each extreme category section must be carefully planned. Almost 170kms of selective stages are waiting to be covered in order to clearly know who will be crowned as winners of this amazing 2021 edition. It will not be easy, as the soft sandy tracks are already with deep ruts from the previous days, the road book is different and you cannot just follow the main visible tracks, it is different scenario each turn and junction.
Techniques, determination, patience, strategy and a rally sense – these are some of the skills that the winners will have in their arsenal in conquering the Mega Edition of Rallye Breslau.
