    Some drivers did get zero (0) punctures, you just have to drive slow enough. This is Acropolis.

    Bruno Magalhães was really careful to avoid punctures on SS4 and is now the rally leader !

    But this is Acropolis. And always was. Very rough, not so much about speed, but mainly about to survive.

    Rally used to be "Adapt the speed to the conditions" and not full speed most of the time.
    As an oldie, I think this is a useful experience, and adds to the note writing education.

    But can we still call it a rally sport event or is it some kind of a survival event? Something is wrong when the slowest driver leads, isn't it?

    Rally-base.com say that Lukyanuk retired after SS 4. Is it true?

    Lukasz Habaj (Ford Fiesta R5) on the Qualifying Stage. Too bad he crashed already on the second stage and damaged the radiator.

    Great to see that Habaj's mechanics managed to repair the car. They worked until 2 AM to allow Habaj to re-start the rally:
