than what should u do keep on the pace full and hit/kill a spectator who is helping floddin???? i whould go off track to safe a life

Didn't something like this happen in Finland a few years ago? Maybe 05? Im thinking a Skoda got stuck trying to overtake a car blocking the stage. Might have been Paasonen trying to overtake Gigi I cant fully remember. I cant remember whether the stuck car got back out either, but there was certainly no notional times given.

Just slow down, and then keep going. I am sorry, taht is bad luck, as it is when the car before you has troubles and get you in the dust, or you loose tiem while trying to overtake him.
It is part of rallying.
It has always ben that way in rally, it could be a cow, a damaged car, spectator, any reason.
Would you have given 8 seconds "return" to Loeb in Argentina 2006, when he has to slow down and turn to avoid a cow???

Yes but that occasion happened at low speed, trying to go around the car in ditch and passing car also dropped into ditch. There was no danger to life or limb there.

I agree, it´s really strange. The second day started without Brynildsen in the top positions, but then, out of the blue, there he is. Ok, maybe he deserves being back in the race, but why did it took so long for rally commisioners to decide?

In WRC is everything really strange. Even the fans to be strange!

And yes it was Gigi blocking Paasonen.

Tell me about it. As I watched those rally review DVDs from the past, at one time a spectator got so frustrated of a cancelled stage that he jumped on Ari Vatanen's Mitsubishi Galant's bonnet and kicked the windscreen in

I didn't even know something like that had happend.

Argentina 1988 or 1989?

Edit: most likely Portugal 1990

I have to check it out. I have watched 9 DVDs in just a few days so I'm little mixed up what happened and when
