Siim Plangi, Subaru Impreza N4: „Our main aim is to win the rally. This is our home rally and I like the roads of Võrumaa. It will be a very competitive race as Janis Vorobjovs, Raul Jeets, Sander Pärn and many other drivers will be very fast.”
Raul Jeets, Mitsubishi Lancer EVO X N4: „We’re going to do everything to finish this rally with the best result. We are expecting a good race and as roads in Võrumaa are tricky and unpredictable there will be a very strong competition in our class.”
Janis Vorobjovs, Mitsubishi Lancer EVO X N4: „If we are going to race the main aim for us is to win the rally. Competition in Estonia is very strong. Many local drivers are very fast and there will be nothing easy in this rally. We changed the engine after Sarma and it’s not working yet excactly like we want. But still we’re going to win the rally!”
Sander Pärn, Subaru Impreza N4: „We had a good training in Sarma Rally. Last week we also had a test in South-Estonia and we now have a good speed. Before that we didn´t drive any rallycars for four month. Let’s see how fast we are comparing to the others!”
Martin Kangur, Honda Civic Type-R A7: „Our main goal is to have fun. As we see from the starting list our main rival will be Priit Ollino. And ofcourse it would be nice to beat some 4WD cars!”
Priit Ollino, Renault Clio R3 A7: „My last winter rally was in 2009. We’re hoping to give Martin Kangur a good competition and as we don’t have any plans for the season yet we can drive with no pressure.”
Markus Abram, Honda Civic Type-R N3: „We’re aiming for the class victory for sure. As we’re going again for the Estonian Championship this year it is important to collect maximum points from the first round. In our class competition is strong. Old friends from last year Sander Siniorg and Kristo Subi, Kristen Kelement did a fantastic job last autumn in Saaremaa and Karl Kruuda will be in Võru with Ford Fiesta R2. We’re looking forward for a good race and there will be no mercy from us.”
