One. The blue spots were only on the still from the onboard, it's clear later in the onboard if you play in slow motion there is no one further on. Only person was the black spot with the reflective hat/flash camera.Quote:

Idiots don't listen most of the time, even when you explain them why they shouldn't stand where they are.Quote:

I hope we get hopeful news soon.Quote:

Luckily last 0 car threw so much rocks at them that they went away before first competition car came.Quote:

I can not believe the guy survives. Two huge impacts. (car and barrier)
Is the spectator ok ?
Nobody knows at the moment
Anyone know what will happen to the stage times?
There is absolutley no excuse to stand outside of the icy corner in complete dark trying to make a photo....
You cant put safety marshall next to every spectator, but it seems there were group of people there, probably his friends...
You have to watch your back or at least someone does it for you. Its just simply stupid.
Since the stage was cancelled to me it means they don't count at all.Quote:

According to french forum, the man that was hit was an acreditated photographer and apparently he didn't survive. Don't shoot me if this info is not correct.
what sources ?Quote:

I hope the guy is OK.
Paddon is not to blame.
I pray this is not true. A terrible, terrible start to the season, for everyone, if it is.Quote:

Rumours in Belgium say it's a Belgian photographer who was hit, and died... I hope it isn't true...
Tommeke_b is ok.
That's for sure,the info is from a commisaire on the first stage.Quote:

Crews are being directed to Bayons - the start of Stage 2. The stage is due to start at 2257hrs.
I doubt he survived... If the promoter is starting to delete videos and being very hush hush about it that's a clear sign. Also Andres screen grab pretty much tell the story.
I fear this is a very dark end to the beginning of our season.
Wouldn't surprise me a bit if he was an acredited photographer. I have voiced my safety complaints about them before...
So itīs two guys? The black one, now cited as photographer, and the guy in the blue jacket, who fell off the rock.
Was wondering if they might cancel the event if these stories are true.
I was thinking about that, but it's a missing body if there have been two.Quote:

I just want the event to go as normal, could not care less about idiots pushing their luck.
