Kuchar is in a disappointing 6th place in ARBO Steiermark Rallye. I know he only went there to tests car setups before the last Polish championship event, but still...

After SS 5:
1. Baumschlager (Fabia S2000)
2. Benedict (207 S2000) + 36
3. Winter (Lancer) +47
4. Wolff (Fabia S2000) +57
5. Danziger (Golf Kit Car) +1:14
6. Kuchar (207 S2000) +1:17
7. Stohl (Impreza) +1:21

what happened to Wolf at the last SS?

i just came home from the rally...we were at that corner...it looked like the driver lost the brakes...at the service there was no mention of dead spectators...just injured....unbelivable sad.

A sad day.This season has been struck by too many tragedies, getting all too commonplace.

Here in the only article I found ... http://www.tgcom.mediaset.it/cronaca...lo461379.shtml

Seven people injured, one is serious.

"Nel punto in cui l'auto è uscita di strada, gli spettatori sembra che fossero numerosi e che avessero occupato un'area interdetta al pubblico per motivi di sicurezza. Secondo alcuni testimoni, gli addetti all'organizzazione avrebbero invitato invano gli spettatori a lasciare quel luogo ritenuto pericoloso."

It means "At the point the car went offroad, spectators were numerous and that area was interdicted to the public. Some witnesses said that the marshalls invited repeteadly the spectators to leave the dangerous place, but in vain"
