Gryazin, back with Skoda and the new entry Cais have been the protagonists bringing new points for the Teams’ standing, where Movisport has consolidated the second place.
Reggio Emilia, October the 19th – 2021
The penultimate world championship match of the season, the RACC Rally Catalunya-Costa Daurada, also gave Movisport new and exciting sensations over the weekend just past.
Nikolay Gryazin – Konstantin Aleksandrov back on the Skoda Fabia R5 and the “new entry” Erik Cais with Jindriska Zakova on a Ford Fiesta R5 made it as protagonists, both finishing on the podium of the WRC-2 standings, with the Russian couple second and the others in third place. A domination, therefore, for the Reggio colors, which, moreover, have consolidated themselves in second place in Teams’ standings, with only one race to go.
Gryazin confirmed himself at the top, finishing sixth in the overall standings and proving once more his skills and his speed. These are the words of the Russian at the end of the race:
It has been a weekend without a mistake! Enjoyed to be back behind the Skoda Fabia wheels. The Spanish tarmac roads were fantastic and truly enjoyed the atmosphere of this rally.
To be second in R5 overall cathegory amongst the fastest drivers who are tarmac specialists is a perfect result for us. Also for the reason that we could take all the maximum points for Movisport in the WRC2 team championship.
Huge shoutout for @toksportwrt And @skodamotorsport for the whole weekend and preparation before the event.
See you next week in Rally Hungary where I jump back in to my Polo. Special livery will be announced soon! @rallyracc@scuderia_movisport @redbull_rus
Cais, on the other hand, on his debut in a WRC race, showed that he could fit in the world championship circus without any difficulty:
First race in @officialwrc. First time on the podium – third place 🥉 in WRC2 is incredible for us.
I would like to thank all the fans very much, whether you were cheering in person near the stages, or from behind computers, phones. We appreciate it the most 🙏🏻
A huge thanks to my team, Jindřiška and my family 🙌🏻
