That crash of Szeja into the car of Gryazin could have ended very bad. Luckily he didn't hit the crew!

This got to be one of the most costly rallies in a very long time. When was the last race when this amount of proper rally cars were pretty much completely destroyed?

Nice rally, difficult as always. Good competition, good but challenging weather.
Not best rally for us, but still nice memories.
A lot of big crashes, quite typical for this rally.

Autoklub.pl made a comparison of all ERC rounds of this year. They counted all retirements in each rally. And it's not Rally Rzeszow that is most destructive, but Acropolis.
ERC 2017 (crews at the finish/crews at the start, percentage of finished crews):
1. Acropolis 16/28, 57,17%
2. Azores 36/60, 60%
3. Rzeszow 57/92, 61,96%
4. Cyprus 46/67, 68,66%
5. Islas Canarias 89/124, 71,77%
