    1. I have no idea, but probably they don't understand what people want to see.

    2. Because they considered there was no danger on the manouvre. But the suplementary regulations says minimum 5 minute penalty, the stewards didn't follow the rules.

    3. A useless question, there's no interest in what i like or what you like. We are two persons.
    In Lousada track there were more than 10.000 persons, and they wanted that and they loved that, and they paid ticket to be there and have fun.
    Solberg received the loudest applause on that afternoonm, and this is the only thing that matters.

    Was there a spectator, marshal or other official nearly wiped out in the Evans off? Feels like another Ministry of Information censorship job by WRC Promoter...

    It won't be published. Don't remember where I read it but someone from All Live told that he had seen the crash and it was very nasty. The same reason why they removed Ott's onboard from 2020 Monte (though they added it first and the whole world could see it), the same reason they won't publish Evans' crash.

    If that's a policy I struggle to understand it.

    Since nobody was hurt isn't it better PR to show it with "look how safe the cars are" comments?

    Sounds more plausible that some people nearby were in danger and survived due to pure luck.

    There's not even any fan footage of Evans' crash so its unlikely there were any fans nearby at the time. There were not any around when Colin Clark did his video from the scene either.

    This is the removal of the car from the trees....

    Look at the way the driver's window is missing... there's probably a reason the in-car isn't available...

    I'm wondering if after the recent fatal accident of Craig Breen they are trying to keep this (nasty) accident quiet to stop more bad publicity for the WRC.
