High Slide...colors of the Chinese Rally Championship, defending Tampere, Finland Jussi Välimäki, 34, on his second rally at China's former capital, Nanjing ...While...Välimäki and co-driver Marko Sallinen faced technical worries, competition has the duo firmly in second place when the drive is still four special stages. (with only four to go?)
Forward to a competitive and highly motivated Started, gravel rallies demanding a special man, a well-known Välimäki got cold water in his neck (?) yesterday in the audience a special test in which the sorrows of the handbrake had left her competition in the starting line. Maintenance medium from geo-lock problem can not been repaired and today Välimäki forced to fight for the first four stages of a move without a rapid control of the car dramatically affect the technical part...
- We calculated that the really difficult and challenging days of competition during the middle of the lock broken...we lost about two minutes. Quick stretch of the fifth post-maintenance hydraulic pump changed corrected the problem and immediately I was able to respond to the leader, Mark Higgins. Without the technology problems
I definitely win the fight, but fortunately, another place will keep a smile on my face, Välimäki says.
- Special tests are really terrible condition - Finnish kynnöspelto to the highway (Finnish dirt tracks look like motorways?) as compared to those crushed by torrential rains in the fast lap. With almost all of my competitors have also suffered from difficult circumstances and unfortunately far the biggest problems have been tallitoverillani Jaakko which the
central co-driver Juha Heikkilä with the drive on the tenth, more than eight minutes behind Higgins.
The rally will continue tomorrow, Sunday, twice on the running of two special test. Välimäki's goal is clear.
- A year ago, resolving a profit in these front of the special stages and a time when the car is so I will try to attack yet sued Mark Higgins, but if I am unable to silver so I'm
going to bring tiimilleni. On the other hand, if the team colleague David put also taps the southeast, may come a day tallipäälliköltä command to let him past me. An
interesting day of competition is in any case yet to come, Välimäki meditates. Hmm. Problem of "driver in front, driver behind"...
