SKIN - Craig Breen / Paul Nagle - Rally Poland 2021 - Hyundai i20 R5

 Hi! I'm continuing with the MRF theme, it was easy to edit this one after last week's Huttunen skin. Being out of the WRC he got a call-up from the MRF team to drive their car in the first 3 ERC events of the season.  Unusual 2021 ERC season started very late only in June with the 100th anniversary of Rally Poland. The rally started with the double-car superspecial Mikolajki Arena 1, where he was 2nd fastest.  After 3 stages he was 3rd overall. On the next stage problems started and he eventually had to retire due to suspension breaking from 5th position at the end of day 1.  Continuing on the 2nd day with superrally, he was on the limit whole day and  was in the top3 on all stages, posting 3 fastest times.  On the rally ending Rally Poland 100th anniversary stage, commonly known to RBR players as Karowa, he posted a fastest time to finish the rally positively. < < < DOWNLOAD > > >

Hi! First some general news.  1. I have added a donation button onto the left sidebar. In no way is it mandatory, but feel free to use it if you want to support my hobby. I would appreciate it a lot. Thank you for all the nice messages! 2. If you want your own personalized RBR skin, I can make it for you, for a small compensation. Send me a message on Discord if you're interested.  Now, onto the good stuff. We've reached a milestone of 25 skins on my blog. We can celebrate that with the skin of Jari Huttunen from last year's one-off ERC appearance for MRF team in the Barum Czech Rally Zlin.  Huttunen got a surprise call from the Indian tyre manufacturer to drive their car in the European Championship rally after the Irishman Craig Breen did the first 3 rallies of the season. After 6 stages he was in 9th place just under a minute behind the leaders, posting stage times between 7th and 12th overall on all stages.  Barum Rally has a reputation for being one of the harde...

SKIN - Esapekka Lappi / Janne Ferm - Barum Czech Rally Zlin 2014 - Skoda Fabia S2000

Hi! Thanks to the adding of the Skoda Fabia S2000 to NGP6 physics there is now lots of new Finnish skins to make. I decided to start with this one-off livery of Esapekka Lappi from Barum Czech Rally Zlin 2014. This was the 4th to last rally in his victorious season of 2014 in the European Rally Championship. He started the rally well, being in 2nd position only behind Kevin Abbring after 3 stages.  Unfortunately on the 4th stage he clipped a curb and the rear wheel got damaged and he couldn't continue. See the moment from here:  He returned with superrally and managed to set 3 fastest stage times during the 2nd day.  > > > DOWNLOAD < < < As usual, extract the .7z package in the main RBR folder.   

SKIN - Sepp Wiegand / Frank Christian - Barum Czech Rally Zlin 2014 - Skoda Fabia S2000

 Hi! Thanks to a couple of German simrallyists asking me to do this as well, here you go. It is the team-mate of Esapekka Lappi from the 2014 season, Sepp Wiegand.  2014 was the highlight year of Sepp Wiegand's career, finishing 2nd in the ERC with 4 podiums to his name, losing only to Lappi and leaving behind some big names like Craig Breen and Kajetan Kajetanovic.  All of his 4 podiums came in tarmac rallies. In Barum he managed to finish 2nd, equalling his season best position from the Circuit of Ireland rally.  In the rally he didn't set any top2 stage times but consistency and problems for other crews meant he would finish 2nd behind the local specialist Vaclav Pech.  > > > DOWNLOAD < < < As usual, extract the .7z package into the main RBR folder. 

SKIN - Miika Hokkanen / Rami Suorsa - Peugeot 208 Rally4 - Rally Liepaja 2020

Hey! Back with another Finnish skin for a modern car. As far as I know, Hokkanen is currently the only Finnish driver who has driven the relatively new Peugeot 208 Rally4 car.  He drove the car twice in the ERC in 2020, in Rally di Roma Capitale and Rally Liepaja, taking part in the ERC 3 Junior class.  He finished the rally in 5th position out of 12 drivers, 3 minutes behind the winner Ken Törn. Majority of the time difference is explained by problems on SS4 which cost him about 2 minutes.  DOWNLOAD Render for the main image was made by the talented Tom Jobim  (Facebook) . Thank you! Also big big thanks to Miika himself for providing the necessary source material!
