I'm not totally up to speed, so what's the current status regarding hospital beds and emergency services being over stretched in that part of the world?
I understand there's a curfew in that part of France at the moment.
What I can't understand is why the argument for an event like this putting an unnecessary strain on the emergency services hasn't stopped the event already?
Even just looking at the pic from Ogier's test crash this morning makes the whole thing look totally unnecessary, whether we're all missing the action or not.
I'd be gutted if it didn't run.
Run smooth - ok, fine - we got away with it.
Any big accidents or injuries and the sport will look back and ask itself why we had to go there.
did Rally Estonia and Rally Monza made negative PR or publicity for the WRC last year?
IMO not as far as i know.
There wasn't this new strain then though.
but the same questions were raised also back then i remember (should they run or not), especially with Monza when we had the second wave.Quote:

On the contrary, most of the people are very happy because they have something that attracts their interest and presents some aliveness in these gloomy times.

In the UK there is most certainly a lot of questions being asked about the football continuing at the moment. Not sure about anywhere else though.Quote:
