Hopefully this rally can become a bit more interesting tomorrow with choas caused by the rough roads and hopefully some heavy showers/rain.

When a sport is so dead that you rely on the forces of nature and bad luck to make things interesting..... LolQuote:

And the WRC+ coverage has been 90% onboards mostly just looking down a track, with little heli-camera or stage-side action. Also no views of the fans or the big wildlife to create the special Safari atmosphere. And unfortunately the weather has been completely cloudy and boring, not showing the countryside well at all.
Very disappointing as a rally and a spectacle.
Spoke to Aaron Johnston who confirmed the tubes on the roof is to take dust into the back rather than their faces.
I think you should come and visit, you won’t regret it at all.Quote:

Disagree, because this i Safari, well known for its muddy and bad roads/stages. Has nothing to do with how the sport i dead or not.Quote:

Think that is what some of the guys longing for tomorrow... ;) ;)
It's worrying.Quote:

Wait a minute, I always thought the "Carlsson on the roof" thing came because he was a bit of a lunatic behind the wheel and crashed/rolled his car quite often?Quote:
