They should make those steereing arms, antirol bars, suspension sticks or whatever and wheel rims out of somewhat hardened rubber and many stupid mistake makers would be able to get out only with a scare, not a car wreck.
Sat 16:40 - SS13: Bouffier
The rear-left suspension arm is broken. He and co-driver Victor Bellotto are trying to hold it together with ratchet-straps. No Rally 2 for tomorrow remember - so we have another Monte-Carlo or bust situation...

This is a rally of the accountants
Onboards now up of SS10 on WRC+ ... scary conditions on the icy downhill ! :disturb:
It´s France! Of course they want that Seb Ogier will win. Not the first time, but was also very bad luck for Meeke...Quote:

Latvala & Meeke out - both will not restart tomorrow as there is no Rally 2 service facility ahead of the final leg. :(
how much time Bouffier has?
Sat 16:55 - Bouffier update
He's on the move and heading to Monaco thanks to some deft work with a ratchet-strap. Ahead is a journey of 183km, so keep your fingers crossed.
He is not moving again, about 10 minutes already. DNF for sure, the distance is too long
Another place for Sordo then, when he catches Tanak tomorrow Hyundai could lead the manufacturers standings.
Starting orderves for final day? :D
Started to move again but only 60km/h
daaa, reversed top10Quote:

a nice video with finally some fast sections

Meeke's rock, right in front of spectators and nobody moved it (quick enough to get the underguard).
So unfair.
Wonder how the rock got there in the first place.....
Bouffier moved but stopped again now.
Daaaaaaaa I thought some rules changed..... Will round two be first days Champ order, final day reverse order?
Paddon is currently in position 32, behind 20+ RC2 and RC3 cars. Does anyone know if he had an incident, or has he just been taking it slow to learn the rally?
[Hello. Since I'm new here, I wanted to say thanks to all the people uploading photos and video links.]
he had retired at day 1 and get some penalty time.Quote:

'Left the road' ? No mention of a rock ? Poor reporting that !

"It's a shame for Kris. He deserves better than that. It would have been better to carry on - it was an exciting fight. Well done to him. Now it is a different race for me - just to get to the end."Quote:

You cant make parts that control the weel from stuff that allows movement. That would make the car undriveable.Quote:

But i guess there must be a reason why they don't do that.

Bouffier in trouble on the road section to Monte Carlo. Approximately 20kms from stage, still trying

pity for Meeke, he did not deserve this, but it is better for the championship fight.
Looks like retiring.Quote:
