The SS9 stopped after @OttTanak #wrc #RallyArgentina
I'm a bit disappointed, I know rally should be rough, and I like when it is like that but I don't know if we can call it rally when 4 out of 5 cars have problems. If they continue like this there will remain 3 or 4 drivers at the end and all the others under rally2.
Yeah but still there are drivers having their cars fit for the stages. Even Meeke who has been very fast. So you can break down your car anywhere in a WRC rally if not brain is with you.
Sat 15:21 - SS9: Stage stopped
Organisers have halted the stage after the fifth car (Tanak). Neuville is held at the start line. Paddon and his co-driver John Kennard are okay.
Sat 15:30 - SS9: Cancelled
Organisers confirm that SS9 will not run. Crews have been instructed to drive to the start of SS10.
stage 9 cancelled
Good news for Meeke
Any more information about this ?Quote:

Latvala had broken diff and Mikkelsen broke damper as a result of puncture and later broke suspension. It seems that four spectators were involved in the incident in stage 9

EDIT - 4 injured. :(
Ogier 35.8 down on Bertelli at first split, clearly still having issues with power steering #WRC #RallyArgentina #iRally
Ogier +44 from bertelli at 2nd split.Clearly big issues with steering,hope to manage this big stage.
edit 1,05 sec at 3rd split
Meeke's error earlier today. @1:00 is probably where Paddon crashed:

People standing on outside on corner equals accident waiting to happen - unfortunately.

Funny that Live Text reports that Sordo stopped at 3,9 km's when on splits he's not even started the stage, nor is JML who's to start before him. Call it unbalanced speed in reporting...
that is brutalQuote:
