    So everything is allowed as long as you don't speed?
    Then i suggest you drive to the nearest police station and do some donuts in the street and let us know the outcome

    This loss of traction law is kinda hard to enforce on ice. Although i am sure that Tänak did it on purpose to ertentain fans, some other less skilled driver could have done it also involuntary - all those boy racers included. So in winter times you just go around and take everybodys licenses away? I know that there is probably some other law that forbids such driving also in Monte, but i am also sure that in winter times police is way more forgiving on this. As i said in previous post - i am in northern Sweden right now and i see some tail-wagging from other drivers several times a day, every day. After all that, i agree that these days everything can be shared in internet in the argument against the rally too and this might also be used for bad PR against rally. But then there are countless other things that can be used - for example damaged trees roadside where somebody drove off, and that cant be just patched. Or photos of damaged gravel roads before they are repaired, or litter left behind by fans etc etc. If someone is looking for ammo to fight against rally, they find it anyway. This incident is by far not juicy enough to warrant much attention, much less such excessive punishments as were called.

    I'm stunned to read so many absurd comments who don't think there was something wrong with what Tänak did in that video. It's a public road and such driving would get everyone of us the licence suspended, without any doubts.

    Anyone who thinks it was safe, just because he's a rally driver, doesn't understand anything about the dangers on the streets.

    Anyone who thinks being a rally fan means giving a free pass to rally drivers is just crazy.

    I'm shocked, not only by Tänak's reckless driving, but also every other driver in the videos posted on page 10.

    Should they be suspended for a rally? My answer is YES, but only if the drivers drive against the law a second time.

    Let's have more time to get from a Stage to another, but let's be much harsher with the penalties, should the drivers not behave.

    Oh, one more thing: I love rallying, but I want to remind all of you fan boys, that rallying happens on the Stages, not on the public roads...

    Ott should be banned for Sweden. It was so stupid and wrong. You can't do that on public road. It's not rally stage, it has nothing to do with rallying. Stupid Ott, very stupid.

    I think in most of countries he will loose the licence for smaller "issues" than this. What he did in this place is absolutely nonsense, it is making bad promotion for rallysport. I am sure if this should be reported to stewards, he will give him big penalty (time or cash). And I will agree with them.

    You do realise your post also adds to these pages?

    I think it has created a really interesting and well structured debate.
