TIRANA, June 12 – The Albanian rally seems to have already turned into a regular annual event held in the country.
It all started in the capital, Tirana. After a well-designed show-start in front of a pyramid monument in the center of Tirana, there was the prologue at the beach, just 40 kilometers from Tirana.
In a long off-road transfer, the rally participants were led in a roundabout way to the beach, 100 kilometers it was on slopes, boulders and water to deal with. Although the section was not considered temporary, but there was a maximum time.
“We wanted to give the participants a taste of what is to come,” says organizer Edvin Kasimati the detour. “Many people go too fast here. This rally is one of the less speed than driving skill, prudence and good navigation. It also gives us (the organization) more time obviously.” Rainhard Friedl from Austria (Mitsubishi) came through quickly: “A beautiful, challenging course, but even here one could even go fast break something.” After they met at a crowded beach, which was quickly filling with hundreds of spectators. It is good and great such world events are held in this country. That is more diplomacy and public awareness than many of the words coming from the government officials.
