RAC rally 1997: Burns took 60 s from Colin in a foggy stage. It´s just about bravery and good pacenotes. Men should be men.
Having said that, I´m aware of the difference today compared to RAC in the 90´s, but still. Rallying demands real men.
Regarding the salting of the road in SS2, could it be to allow emergency vehicles to get through the stage? Like a few years ago in Monza where the outright canceled a stage for this reason.
That would seem somewhat justifiable. Better than cancelling the stage because ambulances can't get down it, although the rally cars can.Quote:

No I did not say that they were driving fast but rallying is not always about driving fast. From the TV shots it seems like it was only about 1-2km at the end that was really bad. Will confirm later when the onboards are out.Quote:

I wonder if all those who says that adaption is key, if anyone would seriously been hurt or even die, what would their opinion BE. It's also risk and what could happen that needs to be considered running those kind of stages in those conditions.
Rich Millener is a very sympathetic man.
Quite a statement from someone who repeatedly mentioned here how dangerous is to drive modern rally cars at fast bumpy tarmac.Quote:
