2008 Rallye Deutschland - official thread

Exact, broken thigh bone for Gigi.
:(

Duval may possibly catch up with both Dani and Mikko tomorrow, I hope.

You can criticize them on other things, but to me on the safety side the FiA have done well to introduce safety features for the driver inside the car. But too bad for Gigi, it's less fun without him.

The doctors have said it will be five months before he is ready to compete again. It's a great shame for Gigi. :(
If Galli's recovery does take the full five months, he won't drive again until next February's 2009 World Rally Championship opener, Rally Ireland.

Femur injuries are the worst of all broken bones ones...if its true i cannot see galli competing at the higher level again,many athletes careers ended after such injuries. hope its not that bad for Gigi.

Totallt gutTed for Gigi......he brought some excitement to a totally boring WRC!!!

Too bad for Gigi, I wish him the best of luck in his recovery.

Now that there´s an "open space" in the Stobart team. Is it possible for Duval to replace him for the remaining season? Probably depending on sponsor money I guess.

Have you seen the onboard video from the crash? The impact was really huge :eek:

Sadness for Gigi :(

Hope Gigi recovers well, huge impact, lucky to be recovering, not many years ago it could have been fatal

I don´t think so Jaani. Something will happen this afternoon.

I feared already longer that there will happen something this year.
I hope it is not serious with Galli.
The current WRC cars become always faster. They become simply dangerous. Why firstly something serious must happen before the F.I.A. take decisions. :dozey:

Yep, you were right BJ. But never ever I want action in form of accidents :(
