Look on the brightside, its the closest end to the first leg we've had in years!....and there you are all moaning about Super Special Stages. We'll have a great battle on our hands if we just have the rest of the stages as SSS's(how many S's?!?!) ;)

The SSS bring rally to public from the cities, and IMO this is a very good thing. Spectators on the roads are being less year by year. Not all the people wants to go to the montais and spend there an entire day eating dust. He need to have a flexible mind to look at rallying and motorsport in general, but we must have our brain in real world and no to try to cover all the country to make one single SSS!
So should a rally be comprised totally of SSS???Quote:

This is not the history of the sport and I don't believe it is the future.

This rally is a disaster guys.
What a trainwreck.
Sorry mate but it's you who mix things, Rallying and SSS are two different things, two different Motorsport discipline, and for the good of Rallying, SSS shouldn't be there me think :)Quote:

In return to the SSS, I'm not sure, it brings the crowds in, though I hear that the stadium was half full?! Silly decision.......but i'm not against the fact of SSS's..... or am I?

I think the Rikubetsu stage in Japan was a good compromise. It's a real stage, just shorter and more accessible. I also think it's better for rallying to have a real stage close the rally, with the SSS as the penultimate stage like in Norway.
Just watched Day 1 review on wrc.com...... pffftttttt
How does the weather look like today, and when is the start of todays stages planned for in GMT ?
