I noticed a while ago, but have only thought to ask on here, regarding WRC drivers in the late 90's early 2000's who weren't wearing full flame-proof overalls and often wore only t-shirts. I'm assuming this only happened on events where it was quite hot.
Can anyone who was around at the time explain what the rules were regarding this?
Why was it allowed? and when was it outlawed?

Had a fun day playing in the new Subaru NR4 on Saturday. Awesome bit of kit. Ran as Zero car for State round here in NSW and actually beat Nathan Quinn on one stage, he finished 14th at Rally Australia.
The car is a bit of a weapon, built by Possum Bourne Motorsport in NZ, can buy from a Subaru dealer now, base model $38000 without cage and you can option up to $160000 which includes Reiger suspension. Will be interesting to see how they go against R5 cars.

AFAIK, the Organisers of WRC Rally Indonesia and some other APRC rounds applied to the FIA for special dispensation on wearing long-sleeve flame-proof overalls on the grounds of extreme heat inside the cars affecting the drivers. I haven't heard of it being permitted in recent years in APRC Rally of Malaysia, which is usually held in very hot and humid conditions.

Nah.. bar talk.. lets do it in proper way. I just had a prompt meeting in Athens for two days.. Is there any place where you can get proper beer in Athens? I was looking Acropolis and thinking about Acropolis rally and finally.. why noone offers good beer here? Or do you drink wine only there? I was so happy to get good beer today in the morning at 6:30 AM on Lufthansa flight :-) I wait suggestions for the next time, because there might be next time for me..

When I go to WRC event, I want to see the best drivers as always. If I want to see some national drivers, I can go to some other less popular event.. Just simple.
