That video of the stage looks like it is quite similar to the rest of the stages, maybe they are muddier but the weather forecast is not great. Been away at another event so didn't manage to make it to the Kronos test today. Out first thing tomorrow morning to marshal on the recce :)
It was shortly reported that Meeke briefly crashed on a log or smth and broke the steering but it was fixed quickly and he continued testing. The second Peugeot was not so lucky. After 30-35 miles its engine blew up and the day was over for BFG driver.
Peugeot has serious problems with engines in last couple of months...
Meeke's engine went on the McRae stages after a few kms and now the BFG car goes bang. Mirek, has there been other engine failures or is it just the Scottish air?Quote:

Noel: It's not always just about engine but at least it's always connected with it somehow. Kris Meeke also retired with engine problems in Rallye du Mont Blanc, Loix had problems with engine electrics in Rallye du Condroz. Vouilloz had an engine fire in Barum Rally. There were also quite a lot of engine troubles with Peugeots here in CZ.
I believe on the McRae Stages it was a water pump failure.

Thanks Mirek, I perhaps should described the issues as technical failures.
