Rallye Breslau 2017
« on: June 24, 2017, 07:29:24 am »
This year Unimog Club Uk has obtained press passes for the infamous Rallye Breslau in Poland, this gives us access to the best action in the rally, myself and Dad (Moose) will be bringing updates on the small trucks class, traditionally dominated by Unimogs, so much so that it is Nicknamed “The Unimog Class”, and also the goings on of the rally.

For Over 20 Years.

The Breslau rally was founded in 1995 and has evolved from a gathering of friends into an internationally known rally, with competitors travelling from as far as the USA, such as Couch off-road with their Magpull Unimog.
The Breslau is known by many as the Dakar of the north, with sand, mud, forests, swamps and river crossings, and over 1000km of rally stages, it’s a true test of the endurance of both vehicle and driver/co-driver.

The Unimog’s

13 Unimogs have entered into this years rally.
This year Joris Peumans, of ASAP truck rally team, is back to defend his winning title in his 416 Unimog.
2nd place finisher of last year, Udo Heidenreich, has changed class’s and will be competing in his Hummer-Unimog Hybrid in the cross country rally, and last years 3rd place finisher, Phillippe Musy, will be competing in his Unimog 1550 L37 again.
Team A&D Off-road have a new competition truck which will be having its baptism in the Breslau rally.
The competition in the Unimog Class is high and there’s no sure winner.

The first leg starts today, 24/06/2017, with a 150km distance it’s one of the shortest legs, but it gives a good chance for the limits of the trucks to be tested and any final issues to be found.

We will aim to bring daily updates, internet connection permitting, with current rally positions and photos of the rally in progress, you can also follow the Facebook page for the latest pictures and updates.
