My informant was bad. :(
This is a short video of the rescue:

Dont worry, In many national championships drivers have to declare the reason of retirement. You could clearly see that it was technical problem:-) Something was broken on the front right :-PQuote:

Yeah, no problem at all :) Just remember Kankkunen or someone calling to Malcolm Wilson that he has some engine overheating while his Escort was crashed into a piece of garbage :D
We should have a topic with anecdotes :)
Continuing that topic.. In last Estonian Championship rally, Tallinn Ralli.. The youngest participant was Allan Popov. He is currently 16 years old. One week before the rally he crashed into the electricity pole and destroyed the front end of the car: http://rally.ee/?a=a022&b=136376&p=1Quote:

Co-driver took the new wheel and driver jacked the car and suddenly they found that they didn't had a suitable wrench for the wheel nuts. Then one spectator offered his wrench (which is of course not allowed but he was not fighting for the win anyway), it was with the right size but the wheel nuts were so long that it was not possible to use that one. So, then after about 6 minutes they finally managed to collect all the stuff and continue driving, still without front right tire (tire flew completely away).
Somehow they reach till the end of the stage and to the service and also nearly until the end of the rally. They retired at the start of the last spectator stage, because he stalled the engine at the start-line and he could not restart it anymore. The start was uphill and marshals pushed him until the cars started but they still decided to retire less than 1km before the end of rally.
So, a bit unlucky rally.
Probably his luck was given to Radik Shaymiev (Peugeot 207 S2000) who broke his steering on the last corners of the last stage. He lost less than 1 minute and fell from 9th to 14th. The finish line of the rally was still approximately 0.5 km away and to get there he finally found that the car is moving while reversing. So, he finished the rally by driving backwards:-)

Joonas Lindroos is leading with 7,5 sec Salo!
is he so fast?
Lindroos is fast and apparently that fast. I'm excited to see if he's gonna make to the finish. Salo had some kind of problems on SS4 and lost 30s, so Lindroos' lead over Vihavainen is now 37,4s.Quote:

Tänak retired due to power steering failure.
Joonas Lindroos did it! First overall victory for him in Finnish Championship. Let's just hope this will continue on the last rounds as well. Juha Salo came second 30,6s behind (he lost 30,4s on SS4 due to loose turbo pipe - it would've have been great fight without it) and Ari Vihavainen third. Jarkko Miettinen was 4th with the only S2000 car Fabia RS.
Kalle Pinomäki won 2WD class and thus already secured the championship victory with two events left.
Lindroos was really fast when he drove in Tallinn rally a few weeks ago. He had superb starting position and led the rally by 5 sec in front of Kaur until Lindroos lost all the oil from the gearbox. So, now he won:-)

Toni Gardemeister was there as well with his M3 but was forced to retire already on SS1 due to technical problems.
Here's the gallery were above picture was taken.
Here's another nice gallery from the rally with quite a few atmospheric shots. This could also explain what happened to Garde.
