Chech Republic had lots of great drivers through out the past but one of the best and still active is Jan Kopecky.

I started to follow him in the middle of 2000's when he continued to drive Škoda Fabia WRC rally car with passive diffs.

Just to tell you that he is a son of one of the Škoda bosses from that time. Yeah, unfortunately in the last 20 years you can enter into the WRC only through some rich relative or your father is a boss in the brand or the team.

But Jan is a very nice guy and he achieved some trophies with himself behind a wheel of the rally car, and not his father.

Škoda works team is having a last tests before official presentation of new evo of Fabia R5 rally car.

And Kopecky was behind a wheel...
