Mostl likely it will be dry, no rain. Just the water that is there from today. There is some light rain risk on SS4 and even slighter risk on SS6 but should be clear for 5. I do not know if they were able to fix SS4? It was crazy effort to run SS3 today. seems like there was some kind of sweeping effect as well :-) I am sure they find some solution for SS4 tomorrow. It runs on the side of main road. With no additional rain, they should be able to access the stage now. They can clean the debris and if possible, then they can shorten the stage or cut it in separate sections. It has at least six access roads from the main road.Quote:

Yes, it seems that he aquaplaned and hit a rock.Quote:

Unfortunately today didn't turn out as we hoped for. We took the lead after SS1, but with SS2 cancelled we only had one more stage to go.
Things were going really well... until we got aquaplaning on a long straight on SS3 and front right of the car hit a rock face.
Brilliant run from Evans today! Just what he needed after a bad run over the summer!
I see Craig Breen has had his spare gearbox stolen! Stewards have seen sense for a change and will let him use a fellow competitors spare.
SS 4 is cancelled.
Farce !!!
Union Corse (familiar to all 007 readers) at work again!!!Quote:

And to think that the northern hemisphere influence prefers this event over the Rally of New Zealand.
Especially the rallyradio.Quote:

Remember also, even I think Evans did a very good job together with his gravelcrew, that average speed on SS3 was 81 km/h. Easier to have balls when speed is low. Evans doesnīt show the balls he should when average is over 120.
Balls are nothing without bat!!!
Then why have the guys who supposedly have balls at 120 km/h lost them at 81?Quote:

So damn awesome!
Massive shame about Tidemand. He has 10 minutes to make up and that's an impossibility.
I guess Ogier's "perfect season" is out the window now. Now the result is wide open. Anyone could win.
...and VW is clearly not doing well in unpredictable conditions which makes me think that a lot of their pace could lie in the amount of preparation they do!

A new day, new beginnings. Drying conditions. No service this morning, tyre fitting zone followed by road section

Sorry but You don't understand what Corsica is about. The event is special by huge amount of corners, mostly blind where ability to push (have balls like You say) is simply not enough. Many failed in the past here because this event requires to be very clever about lines, about tyres and especially brakes management. There is no way to win this rally by pushing like hell in every corner.Quote:

My initial reaction to that without much thought is negative. I have a feeling we'll just end with what F1 is doing, which is simulating everything with very expensive machines instead. If you have a bigger budget, the money will go somewhere and likely it will give you an advantage anyway.Quote:
