"It is a great feeling to race in Hungary again," said Truckdriver Miklos Kovacs. "The rally and the tracks are relly great, we would like to say thanks to the organisers and to all those who allowed us to use their properties for the race. For the trucks some parts are a bit narrow, we have some damages on the front of the Scania, but still we had a great time today."
Among SSVs, the crew Szilveszter Kery / Barbara Bartha (Can-Am) won the first special with a gap over four minutes, and although Akos Jobbagy and Peter Krajnyak (Can-Am) were faster in the second lap, Kery managed to keep the lead in front of Jobbagy and the crew Ladislav Zavtralek / Ivo Sevcik (Can-Am) from Czech Republic.
