Jon Armstrong missed absolutely first tyre marking zone. When you were starting the rally from TC 0, you must go to main road, turn to right and after 100 m turn to left to go to another parking for refuelling (and marking which was after refuelling). He didnt turned left, but was going directly via main road to the first stage...
Regarding the retirement - he put the car into parc ferme, but in the morning his mechanic picked it up. So I think it was his choice, but I was not talking to him yet about it.

Results in Ireland were disaster. We were joking in media center, that on Friday we had bad results, but on Saturday we had no results. But you must look positively - as I have lost patience with the results, I have decided to go for last loop directly to the stages to see the cars. After long time I have seen cars on real stage (unfortunatelly without Barrable, Thorburn and some others).

Congratulations to Breen on his win as well as to Kajto for his excellent drive despite his first visit in Ireland!
I have just checked out final results of the national rally. I have to say I'm a little disappointed. Dessie McCartney and his Darrian T90 GTR only managed to finish in the 22nd position, behind many R2 cars and 30-year-old Ford Escortshttp://www.rallymadness.prv.pl - rally photos and movies!

This is probably the most improper "Flat out Trophy" since has been granted.

Why? When we were talking in media room about our tips for Flat Out Trophy, we were thinking about Armstrong or Barrable. So if the Trophy is going to one of them, almost nobody was surprised. And after his performance during first leg, I think that decision is not bad.

IMHO Bergkvist was deserving it more than Armstrong, but for sure Barrable deserves it even more. Well, true Armstrong won most of the stages first day, but somehow Bergkvist was more spectacular from what I see from the onboards.
EDIT: anyway I hadn't chance to watch the reports, so there is a chance my opinion not to be complete.Last edited by stefanvv; 7th April 2015 at 17:32.

Armstrong had a 31 second lead over Bergkvist before he got his 5 minute penalty.
Bergkvist was going at a tremendous pace, so to take 30+ seconds out of him I'd say that must be pretty 'Flat Out'.
Well deserved in my opinion. The young lad must be devastated by their simple, innocent mistake.
He badly needs a haircut but he still looks like the quickest driver in ERC Juniors by some margin.

How is the market for EV cars developing in Italy. I have yet to see a charger station rage story from Italy. "The Lancia Ypsilon Rally 4 HF is powered by a 1.2-liter turbocharged 3-cylinder...
