János Máté:"The desire to do something for the race was also manifested in the fact that, as soon as the 55th Mecsek Rally ended, we immediately started organizing the next race with Tibor Markó, to whom I would like to thank for his work. I would also like to highlight our colleague in charge of security, János Kirsching, without whose work PSN Zrt. would certainly be a one-armed giant, but I trust that the reverse is also true, it would be more difficult without us. I would also like to thank all my colleagues that during major events, no one is afraid of the task and does their part in the work."
Tamas Őry:„As a regular rally supporter, I really like the Mecsek Rallye. The Mecsek Rallye is the most stable point of the National Championship, as it is also a Historic EB race, with which the International Motor Sport Federation (FIA) was very satisfied last year. We want to continue this tradition, there is a great need for this event. I thank the mayor on behalf of the association for taking the event to heart."
