The Polish Rally, round three of the Polish Rally Championship, which also counts for the European Rally Championship, concluded with an overall victory for the brand new Group N Subaru Impreza WRX STI spec C, which is entirely developed and built by Belgian team Symtech Racing. The SUBARU Poland crew of Kajetan Kajetanowicz and Jarek Baran drove faultlessly and did not experience the slightest problem throughout the event.

The Polish Rally, which formed part of the World Rally Championship last year, once more took place on gravel roads around Mikolajki and enjoyed excellent weather. The standard was again very high thanks to the presence of a number of top Super 2000 drivers. Consequently, Kajetanowicz faced extremely tough opposition on his first outing with the Group N SUBARU Impreza 2010 spec. The Polish star rose to the challenge brilliantly and entered into a ferocious battle with Bryan Bouffier, while all the other drivers were relegated to a minute behind after just five stages. The leading duo looked set to continue their thrilling duel as the first day drew to a close, but then Bouffier’s Peugeot 207 S2000 was ruled out by a broken engine. By contrast the Symtech Racing Impreza driven by Kajetanowicz did not experience the slightest technical problem and went on to claim a resounding 58-second victory over the Fiesta S2000 of Michal Solowow.

Kajetanowicz: “We had a few moments over the weekend and we were often at the limit, but our new SUBARU Impreza worked perfectly. It’s a fantastic victory that takes us into the lead of the Polish Rally Championship.”
