Getting old is not much fun.

Tell that to Loeb

Lots of fist bumps by local crews at the end of the last stage. Not surprising considering the conditions they challenged and the fact that today's total SS distance was equal to a complete NZRC or ARC round distance.

MSport is repeating like a broken record.

How many times has Greensmith had one or two good stages and the slide back to nowhere? I lost count.

Same with Breen good start, starts dropping a position or two ...and it's off. 4 out of 5 last rallies only interrupted by a puncture instead of an off.

I think/would say that today the sudden pace loss was ,,thanks'' to Breen and order to bring the car to finish.. on the other hand I don't see the point to hold Gus back as M-Sport shouldn't care about manu points.

I love the interviews with Richard Milliner where he has to continually downplay the costly mistakes by Breen and up-play Greensmith's rare good performances. He would make a very successful politician!

He manages it 9/10 times but sometimes it's too much even for him, like after Fourmaux Ypres crash.

Anyway now he can at least talk about stage win instead of "good split times" like a few times before.

Watching these stages, I feel compelled to say it is/was a travesty that the WRC didn't try harder to return to NZ sooner...

Covid was the reason for last 2y, NZ boarders were closed.
but before that, you are absolutely right.

Should save the fist bumps till they get back to service. Plenty of cars have broken, run out of fuel or had too many flat tyres over the years on the run back to Parc Ferme. (148.87km)

Today Rally NZ - 160kms of stages, 523km of touring (total distance - a Dakar-like 683.14 km)

[Mk2 RS2000]

Today and tomorrow are two seperate rounds of the NZRC so individual day results count

[Tauri_J]

What the forecast for tomorrow? Rain is 100% sure?

Latest shows moderate to heavy rain all day.
