It's hard to think about some common solutions in case of this accident. The series Rallye Cup is not held under national ASN so we can hardly speak about some common rules. I watched onboard from the other stage and I can hardly say anything against it. Very twisty technical road, plenty of chicanes on almost every straight, no spectators in dangerous places. The points I would personally change for the Rallye Cup would be to limit car power. If I'm not mistaken in this moment there are no restrictors used there. The second point could be not running the stages in both directions which is quite common there. On asphalt the dirt and gravel in the corners can be very unlogic when run in opposite way.
If I'm not mistaken it was first ever fatal accident in this series. There were several others in amateur events in the past but generally most of the fatal accidents happen in "big" events under ASN where the competition is much stronger.

Meanwhile there's a discussion if or how to run Rally Krkonoše. Several nearby villages were damaged by recent floods. In the moment it looks like the rally will be held but one stage will be skipped and a charity action will be organized to help people from those affected villages.

Great onboard of Sıkora from the toughest stage (some wet gravel on otherwise dry asphalt stage etc.). Small image glitches but still great to watch.
