Mladá Boleslav, 22. September 2021 – Inconspicuously, but irresistibly he rose among the elite of Czech #rally drivers. Former karter #dominikstitesky is currently competing only his debut season in the Czech Championship at the wheel of a ŠKODA FABIA Rally2 evo – but
already he regularly fights for podium positions. After participating in a round of the FIA European #rally Championship in July, the next milestone in the 21-years-old's career lies ahead. Stříteský and co-driver Jiří Hovorka will compete in the eleventh round of the
FIA World #rally Championship, the RallyRACC Catalunya – Costa Daurada (14-17 October 2021).

Their ŠKODA FABIA Rally2 evo will be fielded by Team Toksport WRT. During most rounds of the FIA World #rally Championship, ŠKODA Motorsport supported team Toksport WRT is fielding two ŠKODA FABIA Rally2 evo for Norwegian Andreas Mikkelsen and the South American duo Marco Bulacia Wilkinson/Marcelo Der Ohannesian (BOL/ARG) in category WRC2. In addition, Toksport WRT regularly runs a number of the Czech #rally car in the WRC3 category, which is reserved for private drivers. #dominikstitesky will make his #wrc debut 
in this class at Spanish #wrc round. He will be supported by ŠKODA Motorsport as part of the celebrations marking the 120th anniversary of the brand's involvement in motorsport.

"Dominik Stříteský is one of the Czech #rally talents. We decided to support the next step in his career. He has established himself very quickly as one of the front runners in the domestic championship. However, it is absolutely essential for him to also gain experience with rallies in foreign countries. ŠKODA Motorsport is known for promoting young talents on their way to the top. We are convinced, that Dominik in the future will use the experience, he will now gain, in the same way many of his predecessors have done in the past. He has been given a clear target – he has to learn and collect new knowledge," explains Michal Hrabánek, Head of ŠKODA Motorsport
