Dani Sordo is already a perfect connoisseur of the Rally Guanajuato Corona México, where he will begin his eleventh participation next Thursday since he traveled there for the first time in 2006. The second place achieved two years ago by the Cantabrian with Hyundai Motorsport is the best result achieved. So far on the roads of Guanajuato both by the Puente San Miguel pilot and by his team, who have placed all their trust in favor of the Spaniard with a view to this event.
Dani Sordo and Carlos del Barrio already contested the victory of the Rally Guanajuato Corona México last year, until an inopportune power failure relegated them to the ninth final position. A misfortune that they hope to retaliate from next Sunday, rising with a new triumph on gravel like the one they celebrated last June, at the Rally Italia Sardinia. Furthermore, as this is the first test of the season in which he participates, the starting position that Dani Sordo will occupy for the stages of the first day should be favorable.
Heat, punctures and altitude are the fundamental factors that usually determine the future of the only North American event in the World Rally Championship (WRC). This edition of the Rally Guanajuato Corona México is structured in 24 specials, which will take place from Thursday to Sunday. The total distance that the teams will travel will be 958.70 kilometers, of which 325.95 will be timed.
Dani Sordo: “I’m looking forward to getting back into the Hyundai i20 Coupé WRC at the Rally Guanajuato Corona México, where I always enjoy a lot and I usually perform at a good level. I have stayed close to the team during the first races of the season, and I have recently participated in the Rallye Serras de Fafe e Felgueiras, so I feel fit and ready to fight. I would love to win the Guanajuato Corona México Rally and give the team another victory. Our starting position on the first day should be an advantage, although that is not enough. The altitude is an added difficulty in this test, so we will have to prepare well physically and also keep the car. The fans are always very supportive of us on the stages and bring a touch of color to the rally. I’m already looking forward to starting! ”.

This is how clear and forceful Danish international striker Nicklas Bendtner has expressed himself about the year of his third spell at Arsenal, in 2003, after returning from a loan to Juventus, in the British football magazine ‘Four Four Two’.
Bendtner did not want to continue at that time at Wenger’s Arsenal, but his ploy did not work and the striker had to continue one more season, his last (2013-2014), in the Premier League.
The truth is that Arsène Wenger, coach and alma mater at that time of Arsenal, did not let Bendtner leave the ‘gunners’, despite the good offer he had, apparently, from Crystal Palace.
"He explained that I was staying for the good of the club. He called me and said, ‘I’m sorry but you can’t go.’ It was difficult to argue with him and it was the only time we had a heated argument"said the Dane.
Bendtner had signed for Arsenal in 2004, at age 16, as a personal bet by Wenger and as a great hope of football. That season he scored just two goals in 14 games before leaving for 26-year-old Wolfsburg, Nottingham and Rosenborg later. He is currently without a team at 32 years old.

Fernández Alá firmly believes in the coach of the Blaugrana subsidiary, Francisco Javier García Pimienta, despite the bad start to this season for Barça B in Second B. "When Valverde was dismissed, he would have bet on García Pimienta and now we would do the same if Koeman had to be dismissed", he assures.
The businessman and politician from Sant Cugat del Vallès has also confirmed that "we already have technical secretary". "Now he’s in another club, he’s known and has Barça DNA", he promo code for 1xbet registration warns.
Fernández Alá, who is running for the Barça elections with the motto ‘Passió, seny i planter’, affirms at the same time that "we have pre-agreements with some signings", in addition to emphatically pointing out that "we are the only ones who can end the ‘isms’".
As for the ‘Espai Barça’, he emphasizes that "I would finance it with a blockchain from the partners" and criticizes, finally, one of the proposals of another candidate, Jordi Farré: "Giving tattoos is a smear for Barça".

They told me things that I did not understand at the time, but I saw that they were taking good care of me. When I got to the stadium, they took me with them to the Argentina dressing room and then to the pitch. I even have a photo with Maradona. He called me to take this photo. I will never forget this gesture ”, he recounted.
The Brazilian player along with the rest of his team paid tribute to Maradona with a shirt dedicated to the Argentine star before playing the game.
