Kopecký underlines ERC victory credentials
Jan Kopecký made a winning start to his 2016 season recently in the Czech Republic, showing he'll be hard to beat on this year's Barum Czech Rally Zlín, round eight of the FIA European Rally Championship.
The 2013 ERC champion made a perfect start to the defence of his Czech title with victory on the Rally Šumava Klatovy, 26.1 seconds ahead of fellow ŠKODA Motorsport driver Pontus Tidemand.
Kopecký said: "A superb win in great weather, and the fans were thrilled - you cannot ask for more. Our Fabia R5 was once again a wonderfully quick and reliable tool."
The Barum Czech Rally Zlín takes place on 26-28 August with Kopecký bidding for a fifth victory on the asphalt event.
