Looks to me there are 2 roads, with a small field between it with some trees in it, in East Belgian Rally we have that too, but one of the roads is not written in road book and has ribbons to "block" the road. Kubica is also choosing the outer road without using handbrake then.

Polish rumors say (not that I believe in those) that it was codrivers error and as a result they went off, hit a tree and car started to burn

But... look... if You are leading a competiton by more than 5 minutes, there is no reason to make any mistake either by the driver or by the co-driver. This is kind of a dumb and stupit behavior. It only shows, that RK is driving far above his own abilities. If I was a renter of rallycars I wouln´t give him anything but a ticket to drive home.
By winning a rally in a way he has shown before the accident, it could have been a calling card for next years jobs... but now he will be unemployed.
M-Sport/ Ford have been testing using a 'simulator' in the USA. They say its helped improve the Puma Rally1 car, especially for tarmac. Does anyone know what this simulator could be like ? Story...
