I wonder if all the Peugeot's would have had slicks and the conditions would have had the same, Mr Q most probably might have asked to cancel those stages, because it was dangerous:-P
On such conditions cars drive much slower and it is actually much safer for spectators and for drivers as well (like Mirek said already). Speed is the thing that kills, off during such a slow drifting only causes some punctures and cosmetic damages to the cars. Look at the average speed of those cars with slicks, Hänninens speed in the second snow stage was 60 km/h!
Look at Bouffier crash. He spun almost directly into the rock wall and nearly nothing happened, only some cosmetic damage! Thank to the low speed.
For me there are only three reasons to cancel the stage: 1) Force Majore (there is more than 50 cm of water or snow on the road, plane has crashed on the road, Mountain has fallen to the road, earthquake). 2) So many spectators are sleeping in the middle of the road that marshals are not able to carry them away in time. 3)There is an accident on the road and ambulance is occupied there.
It is not circuit racing! It is rally :-)

Someone said "hey what if car starts to roll down, it won't stop and could easily crush hundreds of people?" --> Cancellation. Wise preventative move.
By Mirek : " Nothing really special. I was only sad that Mr. Qusnel decided to spoil even a centenary edition of this magic event by playing tactics. But it happened. It's especially sad for Sarrazin who was clearly faster than Wilks. "
A cloud of bitterness with Skoda losing the rally, right ?
Bouffier overcame all troubles in good agreement with Lady fortune and got on top of podium, no blah blah tactics excuse in there.
Peugeot being weaker than Skoda (car, drivers), Quesnel is a sheep who had clear instructions from the PSA board to win the rally, whoever might be 'used' in the team.
Nothing spoiled, just real world.
A great MC edition. The Italian crew cheering his fans on Turini is really something latin. ;-)
