It was a very enjoyable rally as such but the sad event at Panzerplatte and the Dhrontal 2 accident cast a dark shadow on the rally.
From my point of view the safety was a huge problem this year. At times marshals just didn't seem to give a sh%t. On Blankenheim there was one guy filming next to the media triangle inside a right hairpin. Not to mention the marshals car was parked pretty much at the place where you'd end if you missed the braking. On Veldenz 1 there was one safety who didn't allow me to be on a short straight between to hairpins and a bit further into the stage there was a place where people were drinking wine and standing max 10m from the line the cars took through the hairpin. And on Panzer 1 one of the guys with the blue tabards suggest the yellow ones that spectators are in a wrong place. The guys basically answered him "eh.." and continued to watch the rally from their chairs.
Of course there were good marshals also.
But the really annoying thing was the lack of proper rally radio. Pretty much next to none info shared on the rally. E.g. we heard that Panzer 2 is canceled from the safety's when they realized we were discussing which was the best viewing spot there. And then we ended up telling others there that the stage won't be run. And some short news flashes in English would be great also, since everyone who attends the rally doesn't speak German 100%.
Other than the safety issues and the lack of info, I enjoyed the rally a lot. And the steep hillsides of Mosel was nice training (Especially the Z7 on Veldenz stage).

Very enjoyable trip to Rallye Deutschland (but not perfect, also very sobering following Panzerplatte news). Full reflections in a day or so.
