Dominykas Butvilas: I waited for this weekend for many months, but finally, with the support of Auto Partner, we could come to Świdnica. The rally was incredibly difficult, mainly due to changeable weather. We faced everything on the route, from sun, through rain, to snow. I am satisfied with our performance. From the beginning of the competition we had good pace, all the time being in top five, sometimes quite close to the podium. I felt more confident in Skoda with every kilometre driven. We obtained a lot of valuable information about description, tyre selection, or positioning of the car in various conditions. These factors decide about the result and I hope that gathered experience will pay off in the further part of the season.

We planned to compete in the Gdańsk Rally next. I have never been there, but in this year it is the only round of the Polish Rally Championships on a gravel surface. It is on gravel roads where I certainly feel best and I am really looking forward to confronting them in a R5 class car.

The Gdańsk Rally will be held on 26-28 May of this year.
