    I've never seen this done before on Rally GB... a drastic way of preventing cutting.

    2: Don't cut, logs...
    Much of the route is on roads built by Natural Resources Wales, formerly the Forestry Commission, to enable logging trucks in and out of the forests. These hard packed shale and slate tracks are in excellent condition and most have been recently graded to leave them super smooth. To keep some of the soft edges in good nick, Natural Resources Wales have added logs and earth banks to deter corner cutting. The ones below are 29km into Hafren (SS1&SS4).

    Hafren is quite early in the day so let's hope there won't be any drunk enough spectator yet who would think that pushing one of these a little bit into the road could be fun...

    There's no such thing as "too early to be drunk" in the UK.

    It's not like there's a sheer drop on the outside of the corner or anything.

    I remember in Hafren in 2010 there were logs on a corner which is just after jct 6 so this isn't new. i'll see if I can dig out a photo of them and put it up.
